ROUNDTABLE
The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) is a permanent intergovernmental body established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1964. Working alongside other UN entities, it measures progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and supports the implementation of the Financing for Development agenda.
As part of the Canning House Roundtable Series, Ms Grynspan will examine emerging trends in multilateralism and their influence on international diplomacy. She will lead a private conversation on the global outlook and policy perspectives in trade, sustainable development and the digital economy, with a focus on the roles of the United Kingdom and Latin America, and on pathways for effective cooperation that benefits both people and business.
