a participatory and global drafting methodology
The CGST is designed as a decentralised, interactive and inclusive process rather than a one-time publication. This approach allows the document to combine global policy priorities with knowledge rooted in different regions, cultures and lived realities. All written inputs received can be found below.
Contributions have been gathered through global and regional virtual consultations, locally organised and community-led dialogues, in-person workshops and policy convenings, written inputs and evidence submitted, bilateral engagement with governments and institutions, relevant research, case studies and existing policy frameworks, and the review and revision of successive public drafts through public plenaries.

Our Orientation Webinar and first three publication consultations celebrated 1,000 registrations and presented the motivation, goals, and technical global consultative process to capture all voices. Subsequent virtual plenaries informed Draft 2.0 and 3.0.
