Recognising the UN's Declaration for Future Generations

  • Submitted by: Sarah Boyack, Lothian, Scottish Labour.
  • Date lodged: Thursday, 22 August 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-14137
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Thursday, 05 September 2024

That the Parliament recognises the UN’s Declaration on Future Generations, a document launched in relation to the UN’s Summit of the Future in September 2024; acknowledges the calls urging Scotland to be governed with future generations and their interests in mind; notes the belief that Scotland must commit to playing its part to seize the global opportunity that present generations possess to leave a better future for generations to come, and further notes calls to advance the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, including in the Lothian region, in order to build strong and resilient foundations to achieve this.
