Statement by H.E. Mr. Miroslav Laj\u010d\u00e1k, President of the 72nd<\/sup> Session of the UN General Assembly, at High-Level Technology and Innovation Event : SDG Innovation<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Excellencies, distinguished delegates, Ladies and Gentlemen \u2013 Good morning<\/em><\/p>\n

A special welcome to all technology leaders and innovators.<\/p>\n

I want to welcome all of you to the Â鶹APP. You are among the world\u2019s best innovators, forward thinkers, and visionaries. We might approach the same problem with different views and tools but we are all here today because we share a common interest: the people of the world and their future. Without doubt you hold our future in your hands \u2013 we are all depending on you – no pressure.<\/p>\n

The very first words of the UN Charter are \u201cWe the peoples of the Â鶹APP…\u201c. This is not by chance. Everything that we do is about people and rooted in our common humanity.<\/p>\n

Today, the stakes are high. Poverty, climate change, social unrest, and mass movements of refugees and migrants challenge us. But they also present opportunities for innovative solutions. Technology and innovation are about action \u2013 and we need action urgently.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_testimonial _builder_version=”3.0.69″ author=”MIROSLAV LAJ\u010c\u00c1K” portrait_url=”http:\/\/www.un.org\/pga\/72\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2017\/08\/PGA72-small.jpg” url_new_window=”off” quote_icon=”on” use_background_color=”on” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” border_style=”solid” job_title=”President of the UN General Assembly” quote_icon_background_color=”#f5f5f5″]<\/p>\n

Let us unleash innovation to unlock the potential of every person everywhere, especially young people. will work together.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

[\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.69″ background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n

I will make three observations and propose three action points.<\/p>\n

1) The world is changing and we have to adapt<\/h4>\n

The world today is much different to when the UN was founded. Some changes have created burdens while others have brought benefits. We now operate in the face of rapid technological advances in a hyper-connected world. One thing is clear: we cannot solve today\u2019s problems with yesterday\u2019s thinking.<\/p>\n

Innovators \u2013 from high-tech corporations, to teams of researchers, to the lone entrepreneur tinkering in her garage \u2013 are all working to shape the future of humanity.<\/p>\n

2) We need to work together for people and a sustainable planet<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today\u2019s problems are complex and many-sided. We cannot go it alone. We need all hands on deck. The solutions must involve everyone \u2013 governments, the private sector, youth, civil society, and innovators like you.<\/p>\n

We now have the framework to drive our work on the Sustainable Development Goals provide a people-driven plan with timelines.<\/p>\n

I therefore want to thank the SDG Action Campaign, the UN Global Pulse and Member States for putting together this timely opportunity for mutual dialogue.<\/p>\n

3) We need fair access to technology and innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n

While breakthroughs are happening across the world, they are often unequally distributed.<\/p>\n

We must ensure that technological advances are accessible to all and focus on building a better future for all people.
\nWe want to partner with you to address our most intractable problems.<\/p>\n

You are here today because you want to contribute. You also have legitimate questions: How can we achieve the greatest impact without the lengthy bureaucratic processes the UN is famous for? How can we work better with all stakeholders when our working methods seem worlds apart?<\/p>\n

It is our challenge to provide answers.<\/p>\n

Three takeaways to guide the discussion today: platform, global spread of innovation hubs, engaging all people<\/p>\n

First, we need to facilitate greater dialogue and partnership between governments and innovators. We can do this by providing forums to share cutting edge ideas, shape policy, and inspire action.<\/p>\n

Second, we need global innovation hubs all around the world, and to transfer skills from current epicenters to the rest of the word, and vice versa.<\/p>\n

Third, let me stress that we must engage all minds in every part of the world. Innovation and technology enables collaboration across boundaries and time. Let us unleash innovation to unlock the potential of every person everywhere, especially young people.<\/p>\n

I thank everyone in this room who has helped sow seeds for a new era of sustainable development \u2013 through your innovation, your leadership, and your example.<\/p>\n

Remarks by H.E. Mr. Peter Thomson,\u00a0<\/strong>President of the 71st Session of the General Assembly, at the\u00a0Annual American Bar Association Meeting\u00a0<\/strong>Showcase Luncheon<\/strong><\/h2>

10 August 2017<\/strong><\/h3>

\"American<\/a>Mark Alcott, ABA Representative to UN<\/em><\/p>

Visiting Presidents and Members of Foreign Bar Associations<\/em><\/p>

Distinguished guests
Ladies and Gentlemen,<\/em><\/p>

I acknowledge the honour of being asked to speak at the Annual Meeting of the American Bar Association, and I thank the President of the American Bar Association and the other organizers of today\u2019s event for the invitation.<\/p>

The Â鶹APP is a house that from its outset has been steeped in the influence of international legal professionals \u2013 whether on diplomatic delegations, within the staffing cohort, or amongst the experts who play such instrumental roles in helping the UN advance the rule of law across the world.<\/p>

Indeed, since its establishment in 1945, the promotion of justice and the rule of law has been a golden thread running through the work of the Â鶹APP in pursuit of its three founding pillars \u2013 the maintenance of peace and security, the protection of human rights, and the advancement of development.<\/p>

The logic behind this golden thread is clear.<\/p>

For the 71 peacekeeping operations that have been established since the UN\u2019s foundation, and for the nearly 100,000 peacekeepers currently deployed by the UN across the world, the promotion of the rule of law is at the very heart of their efforts to build and sustain international peace.<\/p>

And then in the UN\u2019s work to promote and protect human rights everywhere, the ending of discriminatory laws, the promotion of fair and transparent processes, discouraging violations, and fighting impunity is fundamental.<\/p>

And through \u00a0the UN\u2019s efforts to achieve sustainable development to build effective institutions, lift public trust in government, and ensure equal access to justice, we make our stand for a just, peaceful and prosperous world.<\/p>

For over seven decades now, the Â鶹APP has been at the forefront of global efforts to promote the rule of law across our world.<\/p>

The International Court of Justice \u2013 the principal judicial organ of the UN \u2013 has increasingly become the forum of choice for a growing number of States to peacefully settle their international disputes.<\/p>

The establishment of legal bodies such as the International Criminal Court, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, and the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, have been critical steps in the global fight against impunity and for ensuring justice for victims of crimes perpetrated during war.<\/p>

Meanwhile, the increasing number of international courts and tribunals focused on specialized areas of law, including human rights, law of the sea, and trade law, point to a growing understanding among Member States of the importance of an international rules-based order.<\/p>

For all of these accomplishments, we are confronted by a conundrum: how to precisely quantify to the global public the importance and the success of each of these achievements.\u00a0 Especially since these achievements belong to humanity as a whole and are seldom celebrated.<\/p>

We ponder how many conflicts have been prevented?<\/p>

How many lives have been saved?<\/p>

How much people have had their sense of hope restored through the acknowledgement of crimes perpetrated against them, and the rendering of international justice?<\/p>

Far too often \u2013 as with much of what the Â鶹APP does \u2013 it is the shortcomings and failures that receive widespread attention, with little acknowledgement of achievements, particularly in averting even graver tragedies.<\/p>

Indeed, in our current global landscape, characterized by an unprecedented pace of change, and the fears that arise in times of great uncertainty, we are seeing in some parts of the world an instinct to withdraw from international engagement and to revert to nationalistic tendencies.\u00a0 That tendency even extends to a questioning of the importance of the rule of law, both within national boundaries and at international levels.<\/p>

In a world facing complex global security challenges, including the worst humanitarian and refugee crisis since World War II, shifting global dynamics, unprecedented technological advancement and population growth, widening inequality, climate change, and large-scale environmental degradation, the importance of international law becomes greatly elevated.\u00a0 That point cannot be overstated.<\/p>

These are the times when more, not less, needs to be done to strengthen the rule of law at national and international levels.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

I would like to make a further point that emphasizes the role of the Â鶹APP in strengthening the rule of law in these challenging times.<\/p>

The decision by world leaders at the Â鶹APP in September 2015 to adopt the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was a major milestone in our efforts to build a world of sustainable peace and justice.<\/p>

Based on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, the 2030 Agenda seeks to shift humanity\u2019s current trajectory away from its current course towards unsustainability, towards a future that is safe, secure and prosperous for all.<\/p>

Premised on the commitment\u00a0 to \u2018leave no one behind\u2019, the SDGs stand to transform our world by breaking the intergenerational cycle of poverty; building peaceful societies; increasing global prosperity; achieving gender equality; protecting our natural environmental, and averting the worst impacts of climate change \u2013 all by 2030.<\/p>

Critically, it dedicates our efforts towards the promotion of\u00a0 the rule of law across the world.<\/p>

Goal 16 of the 2030 Agenda specifically seeks to \u2018promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all, and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels\u2019<\/em>.\u00a0 Goal 16 is underpinned by specific targets by which to measure success.<\/p>

I emphasize that the SDGs are integrated and mutually-reinforcing in nature, and that the 2030 Agenda inherently places peace, human rights, justice, and strong institutions as a fundamental requirement to achieve sustainable development.\u00a0 The Agenda recognizes an international rules-based order as indispensable for achieving a just, peaceful and prosperous world.<\/p>

It is obvious to all, that achieving this reality will require all stakeholders \u2013 Governments at all levels, civil society, the private sector, and grassroots organizations \u2013 to work together in new and innovative ways.<\/p>

The Ocean Conference held here at the UN in June of this year was a prime example of such partnership and innovation in action. With around 6,000 participants from Governments, the UN system, civil society, the scientific community, academia, and the business sector, nearly 1,400 voluntary commitments for action were made in the cause of reversing the cycle of decline in which the Ocean is currently caught.<\/p>

It is in The Ocean Conference\u2019s positive spirit of common purpose, that action must now be taken to build on the inter-linkages between the SDGs. We must pursue cross-cutting actions across the SDGs to strengthen the rule of law, peace and security, human rights, and sustainable development.<\/p>

And in this regard, I commend the American Bar Association and visiting members of foreign bar associations for your dedicated efforts to strengthen justice systems, to improve governance, and protect human rights across the world.<\/p>

In particular I mention the work being undertaken through the Rule of Law Initiative to promote legal education, improve access to justice, address land and resource governance, fight human trafficking, and support survivors of sexual and gender-based violence.\u00a0 This work is essential not only for promotion of the rule of law, but for achieving peaceful and inclusive societies, and accelerating SDG implementation.<\/p>

I encourage you to do all you can to further support this work \u2013 at home and abroad \u2013 as a critical component of sustainable development.\u00a0 With the American Bar Association representing a network of over 400,000 attorneys, you have a huge opportunity to bolster UN efforts in our common aim of advancing the rule of law.<\/p>

I encourage you all to continue supporting the development, understanding, and dissemination of international law.<\/p>

I encourage you to continue your capacity-building, legal education and training assistance across the world.<\/p>

And I urge you to assist in the fight against corruption and organized crime, building robust legal frameworks, ensuring equal access to justice, supporting accountable institutions, and promoting inclusive and representative decision-making at all levels.<\/p>

Ladies and Gentlemen,<\/em><\/p>

In our interconnected world, international law shapes our daily lives \u2013 from internet governance and air travel, to international trade and environmental protections.<\/p>

We must continue to work together to build global understanding of international law as an enabler and a pre-requisite of peace, justice and development, and to promote the rule of law everywhere.<\/p>

I thank you for your attention.<\/p>","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[69,65,53],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-117665","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-newsandupdates","category-statements","et-has-post-format-content","et_post_format-et-post-format-standard"],"yoast_head":"\nSDG Innovation - General Assembly of the Â鶹APP<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/pga\/72\/2017\/09\/18\/sdg-innovation\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"SDG Innovation - General Assembly of the Â鶹APP\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Statement by H.E.
