About United Nation 63rd graduate study programme 2025

The Graduate Study Programme (GSP) at UN Geneva is the longest-running educational initiative of the United Nations, now in its 63rd year. Over the past 62 years, more than 3,000 young people from 110 countries have successfully completed the Programme.

The 63rd Graduate Study Programme will be held in Geneva, Switzerland from 30 June to 11 July 2025 under the theme: “UN80: United for a Better Future” and will focus on the implementation of the historic Pact for the Future in the year when the United Nations turns 80.

The Programme will consist of morning lectures given by representatives of the United Nations, other international organizations, civil sector, and diplomats; workshops; visits to institutions; and work on group projects in the afternoons. Students will be divided into several working groups which will research different aspects of the Pact for the Future and its annexes and explore the overall way forward at a time when the multilateral system is facing numerous challenges. This research and drafting process will be student-led, with limited support from facilitators.

The Pact for the Future Opens in new window and its annexes, the Global Digital Compact and the Declaration on Future Generations, were adopted by consensus at the Summit of the FutureOpens in new window in New York on 22 September 2024. The Pact for the Future is the culmination of a years-long process to adapt international cooperation to the realities of today and the challenges of tomorrow. Its objective is to ensure that international institutions can deliver in the face of a world that has changed dramatically since they were created.  Adopted ahead of the United Nations’ 80th anniversary, the Pact is seen as a strong statement of countries’ commitment to the UN and its Charter, the international system and international law. This is the most wide-ranging international agreement in many years, covering both new areas and issues on which agreement had not been possible in decades. The document contains clear commitments and deliverables on sustainable development and financing, peace and security, digital cooperation, youth and future generations and global governance. Each chapter and the annexes include concrete actions related to human rights and gender equality as cross-cutting issues.
