International Commission of Global Governance

Who We Are
ICGG is an international platform dedicated to strengthening the connections between knowledge, leadership, institutions and action in global governance.
The Commission brings together leaders, experts, researchers, institutions and communities to encourage informed dialogue, exchange knowledge and support practical cooperation on the challenges shaping our world.



The Global Governance Challenge
Climate, technology, conflict, migration, public health, development and economic uncertainty increasingly intersect.
Yet research may not reach decision-makers, institutions may work without sufficient coordination and valuable ideas may struggle to progress towards implementation.
Stronger global governance depends on stronger connections between evidence, leadership, institutions, communities and action.Our Direction
A world where shared challenges are addressed through cooperation, informed leadership, credible knowledge and connected institutions.
Strengthen global governance by connecting knowledge, leadership, institutions and communities through dialogue, research and collaboration.
Create the conditions in which evidence, expertise and cooperation can move towards meaningful participation and action.

Why ICGG
The challenge is that these elements are not always sufficiently connected. ICGG exists to strengthen those connections.
ICGG does not speak on behalf of governments or claim authority over global institutions. It provides a credible international platform through which ideas, expertise and cooperation can contribute to stronger approaches to shared challenges.
