LATEST EVENT
The session, Side Event to the 2022 United Nations High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development, took stock of the core findings of the SDG Impact Assessment and concluded with a high-level discussion on how the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development can move beyond political discourse. Experts discussed how to galvanize solutions in all societal sectors that lead to fundamental and transformational change.
The knowledge obtained during this side-event will serve as valuable input for the 2023 midterm review of the SDGs.
