Hacía el futuro uniendo esfuerzos
Our future was cemented by joining forces


Explanation:
Whether this has to do with international relations or two lovers I think it could work here. The word "hacia" I believe, in this case, has to do with some kind of fait accompli.

Hacia el futuro uniendo esfuerzos
joining forces, envisioning the future


Explanation:
Another option might be "joining forces to meet the future"

This last suggestion may leave (for some readers) the idea of "head on" implied (i.e., to meet the challenges/demands of the future "head on").
