The Second World Summit for Social Development is being held in Doha, Qatar, from 4 to 6 November.

DOHA, QATAR (6 November) — As the Second World Summit for Social Development concluded today in Doha 30 years after the first was held in Copenhagen, speakers shared national experiences to alternately showcase progress or appeal for assistance — both in service of urging the international community to fulfil the promises made in both cities.

DOHA, QATAR (5 November) — Speakers at the final round-table discussion of the Second World Summit for Social Development today, in evaluating progress made since the First World Summit was held in Copenhagen 30 years ago, underscored the need to make good both on those promises and the ones made in Doha yesterday so that future generations do not continue to inherit the same problems.

DOHA, QATAR (5 November) — At the World Summit for Social Development, delegates from all regions reaffirmed that true progress must place people at the centre, calling for stronger global solidarity, universal social protections and rights-based policies to eradicate poverty, reduce inequality and ensure that “no one is left behind”.
