In September 2024, Jeanne Bray, Director of Development and Partnerships at Ohana One, proudly attended the highly anticipated UN Summit of the Future. Representing Ohana One, Jeanne joined global leaders in addressing some of the most pressing challenges facing humanity. The summit offered a pivotal opportunity to reimagine global governance and reaffirm commitments to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) while emphasizing digital cooperation, peace, and climate action.

The Summit of the Future aimed to reinvigorate multilateralism in response to the shifting dynamics of the world since the United Nations’ founding in 1945. With climate change, rising inequality, and technological revolutions, the summit provided a platform for global leaders to come together to foster a more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable international order. Jeanne’s presence underscored Ohana One’s deep commitment to these values, especially in promoting access to healthcare and innovative digital solutions for global medical care.

Jeanne attended the Action Days session, where she listened to John Kerry and a distinguished panel of global leaders discuss the topic: From Words to Action: A Networked Approach for Upholding Commitments from the UN Summit of the Future. This session highlighted the importance of transforming policy discussions into concrete actions that will address gaps in governance and global inequalities.

A particularly significant discussion focused on the digital future. Jeanne attended Interactive Dialogue 3: Towards a Common Digital Future, where 20 global leaders shared insights into the role of AI, digital rights, and the Global Digital Compact in advancing the 2030 Agenda. As Ohana One continues developing its app aimed at empowering healthcare providers with real-time digital tools, this dialogue reinforced the critical importance of bridging digital divides and leveraging technology to achieve health equity across the globe.

As a representative of Ohana One, Jeanne Bray’s participation highlighted the organization’s dedication to building a healthier, more equitable future. With the momentum from the summit, Ohana One is poised to continue its advocacy for advancing global health initiatives through partnerships, innovation, and unwavering commitment to humanitarian goals.
