WE THE WOMEN CAMPAIGN
The We the Women is a campaign of Women Rise for All, an initiative by the United Nations Deputy Secretary-General recognizing the transformative leadership of women leaders in keeping the promise of the Sustainable Development Goals.
This year, the United Nations will host the Summit of the Future during the General Assembly in September.
It is an opportune moment to create a new narrative for the future of our world that reflects and amplifies women’s voices.
A GLOBAL MOVEMENT
The We the Women campaign aims to engage women around the world in shaping global solutions into the future. From a global survey and series of intergenerational dialogues to a film and multi-media exhibition, the campaign will reach out to women through various channels.
The campaign invites women to share their thoughts, ideas, and aspirations—about the world they want.
We the Women was launched at the margins of the 2023 SDG Summit by the United Nations Deputy Secretary-General Amina J. Mohammed and H.E. Svenja Schulze, Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development of Germany.

THE WE THE WOMEN GLOBAL SURVEY
The We the Women campaign starts with a Global Survey. The survey is asking women questions about how they see the future, their priorities, fears and hopes, and how global leaders can listen to them and support them as we collectively address issues, challenges and opportunities of the future.
WE THE WOMEN INTERGENERATIONAL DIALOGUES
• We will hold a series of Intergenerational Dialogues in countries to complement the quantitative survey findings with richer, more qualitative insights into women’s voices and perspectives for the future.
• The Dialogues are designed as intergenerational conversations
about women’s priorities for the future of our world.
• The viewpoints and ideas expressed by women will be shared in a report. Both the survey’s key messages and the report will help inform the Pact for the Future, the outcome document of the 2024 Summit of the Future in September.
