According to UN News, “The Pact along with its annexes, the Global Digital Compact and the Declaration on Future Generations, was adopted by consensus, despite a last-minute proposal for an amendment by some countries, including Russia, Iran, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and Syria.”

Key takeaways:

“By endorsing the Pact, UN Member States pledged, among other things, to:

• Turbocharge the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement on climate change, two landmark 2015 agreements that have seen halting progress and missed milestones
• Listen to young people and include them in decision-making, at the national and global levels (those easily manipulated with a lack of knowledge regarding history or life experience)
• Build stronger partnerships with civil society, the private sector, local and regional authorities and more
• Redouble efforts to build and sustain “peaceful, inclusive and just societies and address the root causes of conflicts”
• Protect all civilians in armed conflict
• Accelerate the implementation of our commitments on women, peace and security (the term “women” is not defined within the document although other language indicates policies promoting hatred toward biological women [this is not an issue of debate in most countries outside the US], both through use of technology and through legal structures).

This pact includes ZERO indicators for how any of the so called objectives will be accomplished, nor does it explain why they have not been accomplished thus far or how current policies, similar in nature, are failing to accomplish any of these said objectives.
