On behalf of UNESCO Science Decade Secretariat, we are pleased to share the announcement of the launch of the Fourth Global Call for Initiatives under the International Decade of Sciences for Sustainable Development (2024–2033).

Officially launched this week at the UNESCO MOST Forum, the powerful new manifesto—A Time of Great Consequence: A Manifesto for Bridging Knowledge and Action—calls for a complete reorientation of our global systems.
