Summit Outcomes

From Strategic Vision to Collective Action

The Islamic World Summit is designed to move beyond dialogue.

The Summit brings together governments, institutions, scholars, business leaders, investors, development organisations, universities, technology companies, youth, women leaders and civil society to identify priorities, build partnerships and develop practical mechanisms for implementation.

The Summit's outcome architecture is designed to move through:

VISION → PRIORITIES → INSTITUTIONS → PARTNERSHIPS → PROJECTS → IMPLEMENTATION

The Islamic World Summit is specifically tasked with developing the Islamic World Action Agenda 2035, strengthening ASEAN–Muslim World cooperation, establishing strategic councils and alliances, mobilising partnerships and resources, and creating implementation mandates for the subsequent platforms of World Islamic Economy Week.

9 STRATEGIC OUTCOMES

Nine platforms. One connected action agenda.

The Summit's strategic outcomes address the major dimensions of development identified through the World Islamic Economy Week process — governance, economic development, human capital, technology, healthcare, resource security and sustainability.
