The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the fragility of our global system and the rife inequality across our world. It has also demonstrated clearly that business-as-usual is not fit to address current global challenges. In the run up to Stockholm +50, “achieving a sustainable and inclusive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic” is central to examining and rebuilding the relationship between human and environmental wellbeing. This goal forms the basis of Leadership Dialogue 2 (LD2) which brings together a range of stakeholders including governments, civil society, international organizations, businesses and private sector actors, indigenous people, women, youth groups and local communities to exchange ideas and opportunities for bold action towards a healthy, sustainable, just, inclusive and peaceful future.
