Sustainable Development Impact Meetings

The World Economic Forum's annual Sustainable Development Impact Meetings (SDIM) bring together over 1,000 leaders from politics, business, international organizations, civil society, and academia to advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The meetings aim to redefine and renew multistakeholder collaboration to build a more inclusive and resilient future. They address transformations shaping the global economy, from slow growth and complex trade dynamics to rapid technological advancement and the intensifying impacts of the climate crisis. The conference drives partnership and cooperation to tackle urgent global challenges, including humanitarian crises, inclusive economic growth, and climate action, with key themes such as maintaining momentum for climate and nature action, digital literacy, and economic inclusion.
