Remarks by H.E. Annalena Baerbock<\/strong><\/p>\n

President of the 80th<\/sup> Session of the Â鶹APP General Assembly<\/strong><\/p>\n

at an Interactive Briefing and Discussion on Advancing National-Level Implementation of the Pact for the Future<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wednesday, 6 May 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

CR – 2726<\/strong><\/p>\n

[As Delivered by CDC, Ms. Sofia Borges]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Excellencies,<\/p>\n

Dear colleagues,<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As the President of the General Assembly stated two weeks ago, at her first interactive dialogue on Pact implementation and the UN80 Initiative, the Pact for the Future was a win for multilateralism \u2013 most notably because it was adopted, by consensus, at a time when few thought this was possible.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Yet, success will not be measured by our ability to adopt a resolution or declaration, but by what this means for people on the ground\u2026 by our ability to implement.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Pact for the Future was intended as a blueprint for a stronger, more effective, more efficient multilateralism that responds to the needs TODAY and TOMORROW.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While our discussions here in New York understandably focus on advancing Pact commitments through major intergovernmental processes such as FFD and the forthcoming Beyond GDP process, the reality is that implementation succeeds or fails at the local and national level.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That is where agreements are translated into budgetary commitments, into national programmes, into tangible results.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our discussions here should therefore focus on closing this gap between stated declaration and actual implementation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Above all, we need to learn from the successes to date\u2026<\/p>\n

In Gabon, for example, the National Growth and Development Plan has been designed to align it both the Pact for the Future and the 2030 Agenda.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In both Pakistan and Sri Lanka, the respective adoptions of a National AI Policy and the One Registry initiative, are in line with commitments under the Pact\u2019s Global Digital Compact.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And in Kenya and Portugal, the development of a Senate Futures Caucus Strategic Plan and a Megatrends Report and a National Glossary on Foresight align with the vision set forth in the Declaration on Future Generations.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Throughout each of these efforts the UN has been a key, strategic partner. Indeed, UN Resident Coordinators and Country Teams are hosting national dialogues to contextualize Pact outcomes to country-specific priorities for SDG acceleration.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We must build on these efforts and learn from them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Today\u2019s discussion, alongside other forums, such as the upcoming Hamburg Sustainability Conference, are a chance to accelerate SDG implementation in line with calls in the Pact for the Future.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Excellencies,<\/p>\n

The President of the General Assembly will convene a signature Pact for the Future stocktaking meeting before the end of the session. This will be an opportunity to reflect on implementation efforts by Member States and the Â鶹APP system, set the stage for the next steps, and bring the review processes discussions to the forefront.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In this regard, I would like to thank the delegations of Namibia and Germany for convening this second event on the Pact, and for their continued efforts to sustain momentum behind its implementation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I look forward to hearing your suggestions and feedback today, on how we can make this a success.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thank you.<\/p>\n
