4 SHAPING OUR FUTURE TOGETHER: KEY FINDINGS OF UN75 SURVEY AND DIALOGUESSHAPING OUR FUTURE TOGETHER: KEYFINDINGS OF UN75 SURVEY AND DIALOGUESMore than 1.5 million people in 195countries shared their short- and longterm priorities, their ideas for actionand their calls for a more inclusive,transparent UN to lead the response topressing global challengesAs COVID-19 reversed progress inhuman development and widenedinequalities, many prioritized accessto basic services and support to thehardest hit places and communities inthe short-termIn January 2020, Secretary-General AntónioGuterres launched the yearlong UN75 initiativeas an opportunity for the United Nations (UN)to listen to the people it serves. Throughsurveys and dialogues, more than 1.5 millionpeople from all 193 United Nations MemberStates shared their hopes and fears for thefuture, and discussed how all actors, includingthe UN, can work together better to addressthe global challenges we face. Amid a striking shortfall in healthcare tomeet the needs generated by the pandemic,respondents’ top immediate, short-termpriority globally was ‘Universal access tohealthcare’.Through the UN75 initiative, the UN has soughtto understand what are the issues citizensaround the world perceive as most pressing. As COVID-19 forced children out of schoolsaround the world, ‘More investment ineducation and youth programmes’ rankedhigh among respondents, particularlyin Sub-Saharan Africa and Central andSouthern Asia. Reflecting the stark reality that three billionpeople lack a basic hand-washing facilitywith soap and water at home, ‘Access tosafe water and sanitation’ was anothercritical immediate priority for respondentsduring the pandemic, across all humandevelopment levels. Many respondents, especially in low andmiddle income countries, prioritized ‘Globalsolidarity’ and the need to provide ‘Supportto the hardest hit people and communities’,and to ‘Address inequalities that havedeepened as a result of COVID-19.’ Less respondents in Very High HumanDevelopment countries viewed ‘Support tothe hardest hit places’ as a high priority.NEW YORK, USAUN photo/Mark Garten

SHAPING OUR FUTURE TOGETHER: KEY FINDINGS OF UN75 SURVEY AND DIALOGUES 5Respondents living in lower humandevelopment countries and thoseliving in conflict situations tended toexpress greater optimism about thefuture The highest percentages of respondentswho chose ‘Climate change and theenvironment’ as a top threat were in LatinAmerica and the Caribbean (73%), while thelowest was is Sub-Saharan Africa (37%). Globally, many more respondents believedpeople will be better off (49%) in 2045 thantoday, compared with those who believepeople will be worse off (32%).Other long-term priorities varyaccording to income levels, but includerising concern with employmentopportunities, respect for humanrights and reducing conflict Respondents in Sub-Saharan Africa werethe most optimistic about the future (59%),followed by Central and Southern Asia(52%), and Eastern and South-eastern Asia(51%). Respondents in Northern America(49%), Europe (48%), Latin America andthe Caribbean (48%) and Oceania andAntarctica (47%) were most pessimisticabout the future. Respondents in regions with lowerhuman development countries were farmore optimistic about the future thanrespondents in regions with higher humandevelopment countries. Respondents livingin conflict situations were more optimisticabout the future.While they expect access to healthservices to improve over the next25 years, respondents in all regionsidentified climate change andenvironmental issues as the numberone long-term global challenge ‘More environmental protection’ isthe number one long-term priority forrespondents, globally, ranking in the topthree priorities across all regions. While respondents in UNDP’s categoryof higher human development countriestended to give the highest priority to theenvironment and human rights, thosein lower human development countriestended to accord the highest priority to lessconflict and meeting basic needs, such asemployment, healthcare and education. ‘More respect for human rights’ rankednumber three globally as a long-termpriority. It ranked number one in NorthernAfrica and Western Asia and number two inNorthern America and Europe. ‘More employment opportunities’ rose fromthe tenth long-term priority identifiedby respondents in April 2020 to the sixthpriority in December 2020. This may reflectthe dramatic COVID-19 related workplaceclosures, working-hour and labour incomelosses. Reducing conflict is a high priority amongrespondents in Eastern and South-easternAsia, Northern Africa and Western Asia, andSub-Saharan Africa.

6 SHAPING OUR FUTURE TOGETHER: KEY FINDINGS OF UN75 SURVEY AND DIALOGUES While respondents in countries that arenot in conflict are more concerned abouttensions between countries, those inconflict situations are more concernedabout violence within their borders.97% of respondents believe thatinternational cooperation is importantfor addressing global challenges, withvariation in the degree of importanceacross regions The majority of respondents believe thatinternational cooperation is essential(52%) for addressing global challenges,while 34% believe it is very important,and 11% believe it is fairly important. Only3% of respondents believe internationalcooperation is not important or notimportant at all. The degree of importance of internationalcooperation varies across regions, with thehighest percentage of respondents whoviewed it favorably from Northern America. Respondents in higher human developmentcountries tend to perceive the need forinternational cooperation as greaterthan those in lower human developmentcountries. A majority of respondents globally saythat COVID-19 has increased their view ofthe importance for greater cooperationbetween countries.Many respondents look to the UnitedNations to lead in internationalcooperation to address immediateand longer-term global challenges,and many also want the Organizationto innovate – to be more inclusive,engaged, accountable and effectiveIn surveys and UN75 dialogues held aroundthe world, participants called on the UnitedNations for: Moral leadership. A reformed, more representative and moreagile UN Security Council. A revised Charter that includes today’s mostpressing global challenges, like climatechange. Continued management and leadershipreforms, including more inclusive hiringpractices, more accountability and moretransparency. An inclusive and participatory UN system,with improved understanding of the workof the UN among citizens around the world,and which shows more care for the needs ofordinary people. Improved implementation, monitoring andevaluation of UN programmes globally,to solve international problems moreeffectively.

In this 75th anniversaryyear, I want to provideas many people aspossible the chance tohave a conversation withthe United Nations. Toshare their hopes andfears. To learn from theirexperiences. To sparkideas for building thefuture we want and theUnited Nations we need.United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres,22 January 2020.

8 INTRODUCTION TO THE UN75 INITIATIVEINTRODUCTION TOTHE UN75 INITIATIVELISTENING TO PEOPLE’S PRIORITIESAND EXPECTATIONS OF INTERNATIONALCOOPERATIONUnited Nations (UN) Secretary-GeneralAntónio Guterres saw the United Nations’75th anniversary as an opportunity for theOrganization to listen directly to the people itserves. Even before the COVID-19 pandemicstruck, the world faced a growing list ofglobal challenges: from the climate crisisand environmental degradation to nuclearweapons, deepening inequalities, rapidchanges in our populations, the transformativeimpact of new technologies and new formsand patterns of violence.In January 2020, the UN launched a yearlong,global initiative to listen to people’s prioritiesand expectations of international cooperation.Through surveys and dialogues, more than1.5 million people from all walks of life sharedtheir hopes and fears for the future, anddiscussed how all actors, including the UN,can innovate and work together to better toaddress the global challenges we face.Increased participation in the UN75conversation after COVID-19Even though the UN75 initiative had a strongonline presence from the outset, we, likeeveryone else, were forced to adapt the waywe worked. We encouraged people to holdonline dialogues and we re-doubled our effortsto reach people not connected through theinternet. In April, we added two COVID-19related questions to our one-minute surveyand dialogue toolkit, asking people to sharetheir priorities to recover better from thepandemic, and to see whether the pandemichad changed their views on the importanceof international cooperation – for better or forworse.While many worried that the pandemic woulddampen the UN75 conversation, it had theopposite effect. The number of people whojoined the initiative multiplied. The UN75conversation became even more importantas people across the world not only discussedtheir longer-term priorities, but also theimmediate socio-economic struggles theyfaced with the pandemic, as well as theirconcerns about the lack of internationalcooperation to address COVID-19.

INTRODUCTION TO THE UN75 INITIATIVE 9In dialogues, many people echoed theSecretary-General’s concern that “thepandemic is a clear test of internationalcooperation – a test we have essentiallyfailed the result of a lack of globalpreparedness, cooperation, unity andsolidarity.”1 Alongside their calls for increasedinternational cooperation, they suggestedconcrete and sometimes innovativeproposals for action on how we can addressthe pandemic, recover after the pandemic,and step up to address other urgent globalchallenges such as the climate crisis,discrimination and rising inequalities.The UN75 initiative and the MemberState-led UN75 DeclarationIn parallel to this UN75 initiative, UnitedNations Member States adopted theDeclaration on the Commemoration of theSeventy-Fifth Anniversary of the UnitedNations in the General Assembly on 21September 2020. We made our initial UN75findings available to Member States fortheir consideration as they negotiated theDeclaration, in our April report, Resolvedto Combine Our Efforts”. Member Statesreached consensus on the Declaration in July2020, emphasizing the need for an upgraded,reinvigorated multilateralism for a more equal,resilient and sustainable world.2020 has demonstrated that the world needsa path that ensures universal access to socialprotection, healthcare, quality education anddigital connectivity. A path towards a rapid andjust transition to low-carbon, climate-resilienteconomies that generate investment, growthand employment. And a path that nurturessocial cohesion, advances human rights andgender equality, and builds peace.The Declaration includes 12 Commitmentsaimed at advancing “Our Common Agenda”—that reaffirms the need for inclusive, effectiveand networked multilateralism and thecentral role of the United Nations. Throughthe UN75 initiative, the UN has identified theissues citizens around the world say are mostpressing along the 12 Commitments reflectedin the UN75 Declaration.Member States called on the SecretaryGeneral to present recommendations onhow the United Nations will address these12 Commitments “to advance Our CommonAgenda” before the end of the 75th session ofthe General Assembly, in September 2021.Guided by the 12 Commitments in theUN75 Declaration and broad dialoguesand feedback received through the UN75initiative, the Secretary-General has launcheda process of profound reflection on thefuture of multilateralism to inform his reportand recommendations on “Our CommonAgenda”. With international cooperation bothmore tested and more vital than ever, “OurCommon Agenda” will reinvigorate the values,foundations and spirit of multilateralism toachieve these goals and renew solidaritywithin societies, between peoples, and withyoung people and future generations.To do so, the Secretary-General will considerinputs and recommendations received from adiverse group of thought leaders from a rangeof countries and backgrounds, young thinkersunder the age of 30 years from all over theworld, ‘We the Peoples’ that includes civilsociety proposals from all regions shared withus through the UN75 global conversation, theprivate sector, subnational leaders and othernon-governmental partners with expertiseacross the UN75 Declaration themes, and

INTRODUCTION TO THE UN75 INITIATIVE 11UN Member States. People around the worldare speaking, and the United Nations and itsMember States are listening and acting.Through this next phase during the UN’s75th anniversary of advancing “Our CommonAgenda” by reinvigorating inclusive, networkedand effective multilateralism, the SecretaryGeneral will propose recommendations fortransformative global action to addressshared problems, deliver on critical globalpublic goods and prepare for the threats andopportunities of the future. The report will bemade available at the end of the 75th sessionof the UNGA in September 2021.Synthesizing people’s priorities, theirideas for action and their calls for theUnited Nations to change how it worksAt the official commemoration of the UnitedNations’ 75th anniversary, on 21 September2020, the Secretary-General presented thekey findings of the dialogues and surveyscaptured in our UN75 report, The Future WeWant, the United Nations We Need.2In this current report, we update findingsabout global challenges and priorities andexpectations of international cooperationbased on UN75 survey and dialogue resultsthrough November 3, 2020. This reportalso includes information on the manifoldactions and solutions that people from allregions, sectors, ages and backgrounds hadrecommended during the UN75 dialogues assteps the UN could take to address today’sglobal challenges.In a separate exercise, we have examinedparticipants’ priorities, ideas for addressingglobal challenges, and how these map onto the UN75 Declaration’s 12 Commitments,focusing first on the solutions and ideasfor action shared in dialogues, and thenintegrating the information we receivedthrough other UN75 data streams. We presentthis separate analysis on the UN75 website.How UN75 can spark action for astrong 100th anniversaryWhat happens next? How can the ideasshared by so many people through the UN75initiative spark concrete action and enhanceinternational cooperation? Contributing tothe Secretary-General’s profound reflectionprocess in the coming year for advancing“Our Common Agenda”, guided by the 12Commitment areas in the UN75 Declarationand listening closely to these ideas andproposals shared through the UN75 globalconversation, we have carved out twopathways to help achieve this:1) The creation of an online digital repositoryof all findings (in line with data privacyregulations). This will allow participants’voices to resonate beyond 2020 and serve asa resource for the UN and other actors to seekchange in line with the priorities identified.2) The follow up to the UN75 Declaration. Thissynthesis report and the raw data containingthe ideas received through the UN75 initiativeare available to all for the follow up to the UN75Declaration.

FINDINGS: PRIORITIES FOR RECOVERING BETTER FROM THE PANDEMIC 19FINDINGS: PRIORITIESFOR RECOVERING BETTERFROM THE PANDEMICIn response to COVID-19, many citizensprioritize better access to basic services andincreased global solidarity in the short-termThe COVID-19 pandemic is a common threatto the entire world, regardless of nationality,ethnicity or faith. It is having a devastatingimpact on older people; on women andgirls; on low-income communities; on themarginalized and isolated. It is presentingnew threats to the 2030 Agenda and theSustainable Development Goals.From the outset of the pandemic, theUnited Nations system mobilized early andcomprehensively to support countries inaddressing the devasting socio-economic,humanitarian and human rights aspectsof this crisis. It led on the global healthresponse, provided life-saving humanitarianassistance to the most vulnerable, establishedinstruments for rapid responses to thesocio-economic impact and laid out a broadpolicy agenda for action on all fronts. It alsoprovided logistics, common services andoperational support to governments andother partners around the world on the frontlines of the pandemic, as they mountednational responses to this new virus andunprecedented global challenge.Emerging from this crisis is an opportunity tostrengthen our commitment to implement the2030 Agenda and 17 Sustainable DevelopmentGoals, address the climate crisis in line withthe Paris Agreement, inequalities, exclusion,gaps in social protection systems and themany other injustices that have been exposedand exacerbated. The Secretary-General hasrepeatedly called for COVID-19 vaccines tobe a global public good available to everyone,everywhere and for an urgent stimuluspackage worth at least 10 per cent of globalGDP, and for debt relief for all countries thatneed it. Beyond health, the Secretary-Generalappealed in March for a global ceasefire sothat countries can focus on fighting the virus.This call was echoed again in his speech to theGeneral Assembly in September. He also urgedfor a new commitment to silence the guns byend of 2020.3As people around the world continue to sufferthe health, social and economic effects ofCOVID-19, the immediate, short-term priorityof most people everywhere is improved accessto basic services: healthcare, education, water
