UN High-Level Advisory Board on Effective Multilateralism

The UN High-Level Advisory Board on Effective Multilateralism was appointed by UN Secretary-General António Guterres to develop recommendations for strengthening the multilateral system, ensuring global institutions are better equipped to address challenges ranging from climate change to rising inequality to digitization. The Board consists of twelve global leaders, including New America CEO Anne-Marie Slaughter and two co-chairs, former President of Liberia Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and former Prime Minister of Sweden Stefan Löfven.

The Board's report A Breakthrough for People and Planet: Effective and Inclusive Global Governance for Today and the Future includes detailed recommendations to strengthen the global architecture for peace, security and finance, deliver just transitions for climate and digitalization, and ensure more equity and fairness in global decision-making. The recommendations in the report were informed by a global public consultation and build on wide-ranging inputs from diverse stakeholders including UN Member States, civil society, academia, youth, the private sector, as well as input from entities across the UN system.
