September 18th, 2024 – The NCRA/ANREC Board of Directors is proud to announce our endorsement of the GFMD Statement on the UN Pact for the Future by signing the form advocating for a global landscape where media freedom is safeguarded, journalists are protected, and access to information is upheld as a fundamental right. This commitment aligns with our mission “to advance the sustainability and growth of the not-for-profit community media sector in Canada”
“The Summit of the Future is a high-level event billed as a “once-in-a-generation” opportunity that seeks to reaffirm existing Member State commitments, including the UN Charter, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the 2030 Agenda, as well as address challenges such as extreme poverty, climate change, and new technologies. The Pact for the Future is the Summit’s primary outcome document, intending to boost the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals as the roadmap for overcoming crises and securing a better future for all.”
