Goalkeepers 2023
The Goalkeepers event will return to New York City on September 19 and 20 as world leaders gather for the 78th UN General Assembly.
This year, Goalkeepers invites you to see the world as it is today, where progress toward the Global Goals is slow and, in some cases, backwards, and imagine a world with a more hopeful vision for the future.
