The World Environment Council, led by its visionary Founder and President, Prof. Ganesh Channa, made a remarkable impact at the United Nations “Summit of the Future.” This summit, which serves as a vital platform for shaping global cooperation and governance, provided Prof. Channa with the opportunity to address the evolving role of parliaments in multilateralism, particularly in tackling global challenges such as sustainable development.

In a pivotal session organized by the European Parliament titled “Parliaments and Multilateralism: Opportunities from the Summit of the Future,” Prof. Channa highlighted the increasing importance of parliamentary engagement in international decision-making. His speech emphasized that parliaments serve as the bridge between local governance and global action, ensuring that democratic principles and accountability are upheld within the broader framework of international organizations.

Strengthening the Role of Parliaments in Sustainable Development

A central theme of Prof. Channa’s participation was the urgent need to address the financing gap required to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. With an ambitious global agenda set in place, significant financial resources are crucial for the successful implementation of the SDGs.

Prof. Channa articulated how parliaments possess distinct powers that can help close this financing gap:

  • Legislative Power: The ability to pass laws and enact policies that promote sustainable financing, at both national and international levels.
  • Budgetary Authority: Parliaments can direct resources toward sustainable development projects, ensuring that SDG priorities are reflected in national budgets.
  • Supervisory Role: They play a critical role in holding governments accountable for the effective implementation of sustainable development programs, ensuring transparency in the use of funds.
  • Influence and Advocacy: Beyond formal powers, parliaments can drive public opinion and foster collaboration between private sectors, civil society, and governments in mobilizing SDG financing.

Prof. Channa also stressed the importance of international partnerships, noting that while national parliaments play an essential role, the scale of the challenge demands enhanced global collaboration. He emphasized that collective efforts are needed to bridge the SDG financing gap and promote sustainable practices across borders.

A Vision for the Future of Multilateralism

The involvement of the World Environment Council in this high-level dialogue signifies its expanding influence in shaping global sustainability and governance. Prof. Channa’s active engagement underscores the council’s commitment to fostering collaboration between governments, international bodies, and civil society to tackle pressing environmental and developmental issues.

As the summit continues, the World Environment Council is set to take an even more prominent role in advocating for eco-friendly policies, green certifications, and innovative solutions. This participation lays the groundwork for future initiatives, solidifying the council’s place as a key player in global environmental governance.

Prof. Channa’s contributions at the UN “Summit of the Future” align perfectly with the council’s overarching mission—to advance sustainable development and to ensure that global cooperation delivers tangible results for all. The World Environment Council’s growing presence on the world stage reflects a brighter future for multilateralism and sustainability.
