Localizing the SDGs has resources and features that support you.
Looking towards the 2024 UN Summit of the Future with the theme “Multilateral Solutions for a Better Tomorrow”, the Local2030 Coalition has joined forces with the Governments of Spain and Brazil and the Global Taskforce of Local and Regional Governments to organize a Side Event during the Summit’s Action Days focused on the importance of localizing the commitments and actions stemming from the Pact for the Future. The side event will build on the objective of the Summit to forge a “new global consensus” on the future of multilateralism by illustrating the power of multi-stakeholder collaboration and multilevel governance to achieve the promise of the Pact for the Future and Our Common Agenda at the local level.
Drawing on the 2023 SDG Summit's political declaration, where countries emphasized the importance of working together at all levels to achieve the SDGs, the side event will focus on local action and sustainable urbanization as key enablers to drive progress on the 2030 Agenda. It will provide a unique space to showcase local initiatives that champion social inclusion, multi stakeholder collaboration, and equality and human rights. The event will also share how key milestones between HLPF 2024, the Summit of the Future and COP30, including the 12th World Urban Forum, COP29, the 4th Conference on Financing for Development, HLPF 2025, and the World Summit for Social Development, can serve to inform and incubate innovative multi-stakeholder commitments and solutions, to achieve the global goals.
