讲座摘要

It argues that the UN SDG framework is coming to an end, and global cooperation is becoming fragmented due to geopolitical conflicts, great power tensions, fiscal stress, and security‑first priorities.Multilateralism evolves from doctrinal multilateralism to functional multilateralism, with governance shifting from centralized to networked, and participants expanding from states only to states, markets, and science. COVID‑19, geopolitical fragmentation, wars, and industrial policy shocks have made national security outweigh global coordination, weakening UN consensus and boosting regional and thematic blocs. Regional cooperation is exemplified by AfCFTA, EU Global Gateway, Green BRI, and Indo‑Pacific climate security corridors. Cross‑border climate‑resilient infrastructure, energy transition, food and water security, digital and AI governance, blended finance, and risk sharing.
