A new multilateralism for the people and the planet

Global governance is at an inflection point. Multiple crises are affecting people and the planet: continuing and escalating wars, genocide in Palestine, increasing inequalities and wealth concentration, relentless attacks on human rights and democracy, ecological destruction and climate and biodiversity crises, collapse of public services and infrastructure, increasing levels of gender violence and food insecurity. All of these crises have at their core neoliberal globalization, transnational corporations, and unaccountable power. More recently, far-right politics has gained much ground globally and has further weakened the damaged multilateral system. This has led to the normalization of ethno-nationalist policies, denialism of science, and the polycrisis as well as to racist and sexist discourse, including hate speech against migrant and refugee people.
