What to expect at the HLPF: Building momentum towards the SDG Summit and beyond
Each year, countries gather at the United Nations at the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF) to report their successes and challenges in bringing the 2030 Agenda and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to life.
This webinar will unpack with key-note speakers the main expectations at this year’s HLPF, including reviewing the main findings from two reports which will inform the SDG Summit: the Global Sustainable Development Report 2023, and the report by the High-Level Advisory Board on Effective and Inclusive Global Governance. At the same time, this webinar will explore linkages with the 2023 SDG Summit and the 2024 Summit of the Future.
