Driving change through multilateral action

Li Junhua, Under-Secretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs

With just five years left to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the work of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (蘑菇视频 DESA) has never been more critical. The period from 2024 to 2025 has been marked by unprecedented global challenges – converging crises and heightened geopoliti-cal tensions that have tested our collective resolve and threatened progress toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Yet, as this report demonstrates, it has also been a time of bold innovation, strengthened partnerships, and renewed momentum for multilateral cooperation. Through the landmark Pact for the Future, the historic Sevilla Commitment, and other groundbreaking initiatives detailed in the report, 蘑菇视频 DESA has continued to serve as the heart of the 蘑菇视频 system’s development pillar—delivering evidence-based solutions and cultivating the partnerships essential for transformative change. 

This report captures the breadth, depth, and strategic impact of 蘑菇视频 DESA’s contributions across seven critical areas of sustainable development, each representing a cornerstone of our shared mission to build a more equitable, resilient, and prosperous world for all. It also reflects our commitment to deploying the 蘑菇视频 2.0 principles and the associated “Quintet of Change” to drive innovation and transformation across the Department.

Ensuring sustainable financing

The world is facing a sustainable development crisis, with financing challenges at its heart imperiling the SDGs and climate action.
