2019: An important year for the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
September 01, 2019 cib
In September 2015, the world leaders adopted a new set of development goals, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), developed as a successor of the Millennium Development Goals which ended in 2015. Since then, the progress on the SDGs has been discussed at the dedicated High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development in July every year. This year, however, another even more high-level meeting will take place on 24-25 September: the four-yearly SDG summit. Here, Heads of State and Government will take stock of the progress on the SDGs, after 4 years. How can we accelerate?
