Ahead of the United Nations Summit of the Future, due to be held in September in New York, the UN Civil Society Conference takes place on 9 and 10 May 2024 in Nairobi, Kenya. This will focus specifically on gathering contributions for the Summit, but also on strengthening connections between the UN and civil society in general.
