Led by Spain, the OECD, SEGIB and the United Nations, through UNCTAD, and in close collaboration
with a diverse set of institutional partners—, the event will provide a space to help shape the future
focus, scope, and work of the Beyond GDP Global Alliance, which is being launched at the Conference.
The Global Alliance gathers countries and partners committed to advancing the integration of more
comprehensive development considerations into policy and financing practices.
In doing so, the Alliance contributes to the ongoing process of identifying and promoting the use of new
measures of progress on sustainable development that complement or go beyond GDP, and to their
application in renewed frameworks of international co-operation in line with the Pact for the Future. This
Alliance will serve as a platform for shared ambition, mutual learning and coordinated action,
contributing to the efforts within the Seville Platform. The event will also seek to encourage broader
participation from countries and organisations in the Beyond GDP Global Alliance.
Bringing together participants from across all regions, the event will foster cross-regional dialogue and
knowledge exchange. It will provide space for countries and institutions to share experiences, identify
region-specific priorities, and articulate expectations for the Alliance’s agenda. Particular attention will
be given to the ways in which beyond GDP metrics can inform development strategies, policy planning,
and financing frameworks at both national and international levels.
