UN Live at Davos

As global challenges grow more complex and interconnected, the need for dialogue that bridges policy, technology, culture, and lived experience has never been greater.

At the 2026 Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos, UN Live will engage with leaders across sectors to explore how culture and creativity can support trust-building, togetherness, a sense of a Global We, and responsible innovation in a rapidly changing world. As artificial intelligence, geopolitical shifts, inequalities, and planetary pressures reshape our societies, technical solutions alone are not enough. Meaningful progress also depends on how people make sense of change, relate to one another, and imagine shared futures.

UN Live’s presence in Davos reflects our commitment to bringing cultural perspectives into global conversations — highlighting the role of arts, popular culture, and storytelling in fostering empathy, inclusion, and community across difference.

Throughout the week, we will look forward to contributing to conversations that connect innovation with human values, and that recognise culture as a vital force in navigating complexity and shaping more resilient, equitable futures.

If you’re attending Davos and interested in engaging around culture, creativity, and shared futures, we welcome the conversation.
