Science Summit at UNGA 79

September 17 2024
9:00
Cure, 345 Park Avenue South, New York, NY 10010

Introduction

Science for a Sustainable Future: Showcasing Science Collaboration for the SDGs​

The role and contribution of science in attaining the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) will be the central theme of the Science Summit. The objective is to enable science collaborations to demonstrate how science supports the attainment of the UN SDGs and Agenda 2030. The meeting will also prepare input for the United Nations Summit of the Future, which will take place during UNGA79 on 22-23 September 2024.

The Summit will examine what enabling policy, regulatory and financial environments are needed to implement and sustain the science mechanisms required to support genuinely global scientific collaborations across continents, nations and themes. Scientific discovery through the analysis of massive data sets is at hand. This data-enabled approach to science, research and development will be necessary if the SDGs are to be achieved.

The Science Summit will be held at Cure, a healthcare innovation campus in the heart of New York City, located at 345 Park Avenue South, between 25th and 26th Streets.
