World Economic Forum Video: New Agreement on Plastics: What Will It Take?
In December 2024, over 170 countries gathered to conclude a global treaty to reach a plastic pollution-free world by 2040. While negotiations were inconclusive, the countries sought to complete the process in 2025, highlighting an urgent, time-bound need to bridge remaining areas of divergence. What will it take to land the treaty to end plastic pollution and how can business and government be supported to tackle the issue in the interim? This session, from the Annual Meeting 2025, is linked to the ongoing work of the Global Plastic Action Partnership of the World Economic Forum.

This week's top stories of the week include:
0:15 4 trends shaping future buildings – Liveable, sustainable, resilient and affordable real estate is essential to our shared future. As populations age, more buildings will have to adapt to the needs of older people, offering qualities such as accessibility and proximity to medical care.

9:37 David Beckham champions kid’s rights – David Beckham is a footballing icon. Since 2005, he’s also been a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF. In 2015, Beckham launched the 7 Fund, named after his shirt number, to help vulnerable children get the best possible start in life.

World Economic Forum Video: 5 Global Risks & Women’s Health Gap | WEF | Top Stories of the Week
This week's top stories of the week include:
0:15 5 global risks facing the world – The Global Risks Report 2025, produced by the World Economic Forum in collaboration with Marsh McLennan and Zurich Insurance Group, offers a sobering outlook for the future. Nearly two-thirds of surveyed experts anticipate a turbulent decade ahead, with no expectation of calmer times.
2:58 Why women’s health is often ignored – Women spend 25% more of their lives in poor health than men, despite having a longer life expectancy. Nine key conditions account for one-third of this women’s health gap. Seven are conditions that affect women only. They include breast cancer, endometriosis and menopause.
5:40 Protectionism harms global trade – Protectionism involves restricting imports, often by putting tariffs on them to defend industries from foreign competition. In the short term, protectionism can boost domestic economies, creating jobs and swelling government revenues. But it can also reduce consumer choice and lead to trade retaliation from other nations along with a more uncertain global economic environment.
9:27 Most in-demand health career – With nearly 29 million nurses worldwide, nursing is the largest healthcare profession. However, a global shortage persists, with 6 million unfilled positions before the pandemic—89% in low and lower-middle-income countries. This gap impacts both healthcare outcomes and economic growth.
