This General Assembly brings together key stakeholders, experts, and collaborators to address the critical need for sustainability, social equity, and resilience in our communities. As we navigate global challenges, including the impacts of climate change, it is crucial to explore ways to build inclusive solutions that empower individuals through sustainable skill-building, foster social fairness, and ensure resilience in our societal structures.

The assembly will include discussions on:

• Sustainable Skills Development: Building future-ready, adaptable skills in diverse communities to ensure long-term growth and prosperity.
• Social Fairness: Promoting equitable opportunities and overcoming systemic inequalities to create a more inclusive society.
• Resilience: Strengthening the capacity of individuals and systems to withstand and adapt to global and local challenges.

In conjunction with the General Assembly, the Closed Partner Meeting will focus on “Responding to Heatwaves in the Older People Ecosystem.” This critical discussion will highlight the intersection of climate change and aging populations, with an emphasis on proactive, inclusive strategies for mitigating the impacts of extreme heat events.

We believe that collaboration and the exchange of knowledge across sectors are key to creating a more equitable and sustainable future. Your participation will be invaluable in driving forward solutions that empower communities, foster social fairness, and enhance resilience in the face of evolving challenges.

We look forward to welcoming you to this important event.
