## What the Reel claims

The Reel caption says the Pact for the Future was adopted at the UN in September 2024 and that the Global Digital Compact commits states to digital public infrastructure, legal digital identity, and information integrity / countering misinformation. It frames these as non-binding today but potentially implemented later.

## What the document actually says, in brief

- The Pact for the Future was adopted by the UN General Assembly on 22 September 2024, with annexes including the Global Digital Compact and Declaration on Future Generations.
- The Global Digital Compact does discuss digital public infrastructure and legal identity.
- It also discusses information integrity and says states will design measures to counter and address misinformation and disinformation, while respecting freedom of expression and human rights.
- It is a UN General Assembly resolution/framework, not a treaty that directly creates domestic law by itself.
- Implementation depends on states, UN agencies, institutions, laws, procurement and future national/regional decisions.
