Be Human and Accountable in a World of Multiple Crises and Opportunities


Ulrich Graute


"I am a seasoned policy analyst, program manager, team leader, and mentor with 35 years of experience driving success for public and private institutions at local, national, and international levels. Based on my international experience I support with professionalism, integrity and empathy Cities, Governments, and Non-governmental Organisations around the world in their cooperation, policy analysis, strategy and transition management in times of multiple challenges and opportunities.


For my work beyond 2025 I am looking for new challenges in support of cities, governments and NGOs. In view of the change increasingly perceived as the age of artificial intelligence, I ask myself what the human element in the world will be in the future and how we can shape it for the better of our and of future generations."

Ulrich's Current work

In 2024 and 2025, I am extending my experience eg as General Rapporteur of ISOCARP's 61st World Planning Congress in Riyadh, by organising seminars on AI in Urban Planning and, of course, as governance expert I am engaged in discussions on institutional reform of the United Nations and other institutions.

Next steps beyond 2025

Rich in experience in policy and strategy development, transnational cooperation, local, national and international governance I am looking for new challenges, e.g. related to governance or human development in context of Artificial Intelligence
