Programme for People and Planet

We seek not only to bring the world together, but also to chart a course forward – and we can’t do that on our own. We invite you to join us in the pursuit of a cleaner, safer and healthier future for all. When we unite as one and take personal and collective responsibility, our shared impact will make a difference in the quality of life for generations to come.

The Programme for People and Planet is a platform for the free and open exchange of new ideas and innovations. It’s designed to help reimagine the global economy; place equality, universal respect and human dignity at the centre of human progress; and instill a sense of responsibility to live in harmony and balance with the natural world.

Through five tracks – Build Bridges, Leave No One Behind, Live in Balance, Thrive Together and UAE Vision 2071 – we will explore humanity’s most pressing challenges through a cultural, social, environmental and economic lens.

We will build a global community of action from across our 200-plus participants and partners, and millions of visitors around the world. Together, we will unlock the potential for individuals and communities to shape the future as we engage in conversations that matter and deliver real-life solutions to real-life challenges.
