Business Fights Poverty: Global Goals Summit Highlights and Event Videos

Business Fights Poverty (BFP)  held a five-day, highly interactive “Global Goals Summit” during the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA76) – bringing together voices and insights from across the globe, from business, NGOs, academia and government – to share the latest thinking on the nature of the challenges we face, and the nature of the solutions that are needed.

For five days, BFP brought together experts to explore a different theme around how we can “Rebuild Better” from the pandemic – Leadership, Gender, Livelihoods, Climate and Partnership. Practical lessons and new opportunities to collaborate were shared to tackle the big social and environmental challenges that we all care about.

The event is the latest in BFP’s series of Rebuild Better Summits, and was co-hosted with Unilever, and a number of partners, including the International Finance Corporation and the Corporate Responsibility Initiative at Harvard Kennedy School.
