Process in 2025

2025 is a critical year. The world faces massive economic and climate injustice, so leaders must act now to fund our future. Critical meetings could unlock the resources that are needed for a just and sustainable world.

Leaders will be meeting at major UN conferences such as the Fourth Financing for Development Conference (FfD4) in Spain, the World Social Summit and the Climate Conference, COP30 in Brazil.

Now is the time for a powerful collective movement everywhere demanding fundamental change, we can make significant breakthroughs in overhauling the international financial architecture and securing economic justice for all. The urgent pressure to act needs to be felt by every government.

To succeed we need to show the connections between economic justice and the struggles for climate justice, public services and the human rights of women and the most excluded groups.

We need to show that there are alternatives to the unjust and extractive economic system which is driving inequality and contributing to the undermining of civic space. We need to stand together and make our values and demands visible everywhere.
