Securing A Sustainable Future<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\nThe Â鶹APP will convene the SDG Summit on 18-19 September 2023 at its Headquarters in New York, during the General Assembly high-level week. With the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development at midpoint, world leaders will carry out a comprehensive review of the state of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), respond to the impact of multiple and interlocking crises facing the world, and provide high-level political guidance on transformative and accelerated actions towards the target year of 2030.<\/p>\n
But the Agenda is a promise, not a guarantee. At the halftime mark, the promise is in deep peril<\/span>. For the first time in decades, development progress is reversing under the combined impacts of climate disasters, conflict, economic downturn and lingering COVID-19 effects. The SDG Summit serves as a rallying cry to recharge momentum, for world leaders to come together, to reflect on where we stand and resolve to do more. It is a moment to recommit to a vision of the future that ensures no one is left behind. Fundamental shifts in commitment, solidarity, financing and action must put us back on track to end poverty, realize just societies and reset a balanced relationship with the natural world.<\/p>\nLearn more about the UN 2023 SDG Summit here<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Fast Facts<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>Ahead of the SDG Summit in September, you can find informative Fast Facts to get you familiar with some of the issues that will be in focus.
