Welcome to UN News’ special coverage of the Second World Summit for Social Development, taking place from 4 to 6 November 2025 in Doha, Qatar.
Thirty years after Copenhagen, world leaders gather to renew commitment to social progress, equality and inclusion, addressing poverty, decent work, and opportunity for all.
Bringing together Heads of State and Government, international organizations, civil society, youth, and the private sector, the World Summit will spotlight concrete solutions to today’s most pressing social challenges – from rising inequality and unemployment to the impacts of technology and climate change on communities worldwide.
Amid these global shifts, the Summit aims to reinvigorate the Copenhagen Declaration, accelerate action on the 2030 Agenda, and forge partnerships for a fairer, more resilient world.
From the plenary halls to the parallel forums, UN News will be there – bringing you live updates, expert insights, and stories from those shaping the future of social development.
