Tomorrow Is Possible is leading a Cepei
(a Columbian think tank) research project, in collaboration with partners such as IDOS (a German think tank), to examine how power and influence operate within the UN Development System. Beyond formal bodies like the General Assembly, ECOSOC, and Executive Boards, decisions are often shaped through informal networks, regional blocs, leadership dynamics, and coalitions of states. The study maps formal and informal pathways, offering reform-oriented insights and actionable analysis on how decisions are made, who drives them, and how underrepresented actors can strengthen their voice in global governance.
The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) held its senior management retreat on 2 September 2025 in Stockholm, Sweden. Tomorrow Is Possible was invited to deliver a key note speech on the future of Development Cooperation. The presentation was an opportunity to present some new ideas and hard facts on the changing landscape. The full presentation can be found here.
Germany's Federal Ministry for Economic and Development (BMZ) organised in collaboration with the German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS) a
workshop focused on #UN80. Tomorrow Is Possible was invited as one of the experts providing some thoughts on what has worked and hasn’t worked in the past UN reforms.
The Independent Evaluation Office (IEO) of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is conducting a formative evaluation of the UNDP Funding Windows (FW). Tomorrow Is Possible is part of the team of consultants hired for this evaluation and specifically responsible to develop a landscape analysis and a comparison with similar agency-specific and inter-agency thematic funding. The final evaluation and management response will be discussed at the UNDP Executive Board in February 2026. More information about the UNDP Funding Windows here
Tomorrow Is Possible supported the UN country team in Kazakhstan with the development of their Cooperation Framework for the period 2026 - 2030. The Cooperation Framework is a bold and transformative blueprint designed to accelerate progress towards sustainable development. Anchored in national priorities and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the Cooperation Framework represents a strategic partnership between the UN Country Team and the Government of Kazakhstan, ensuring that no one is left behind as the country advances towards inclusive prosperity.
The UN Sustainable Development Group (UNSDG) decided in 2023 on Six Transitions: Investment Pathways to Deliver the SDGs. The UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) hired Tomorrow Is Possible to collect good practices on how risk reduction was integrated in the SDG transitions. Using these good practices, a set of recommendations, tips and tricks were developed to inspire UN country teams on how to integrate risk reduction better in SDG Transitions. A first issue brief based on this work was published in June 2025 here.
