Localizing the SDGs: How Cities Can Help Achieve the 2030 Agenda
In September 2015, world leaders agreed on 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with 169 targets to end poverty, fight inequality and injustice, and tackle climate change by 2030. Many of the SDGs are interrelated and will require governments to develop integrated and cross-cutting approaches to make the goals a reality. Cities and local stakeholders will play a critical role in implementing the SDGs.
Please join us for a discussion organized by the Habitat III U.S. National Committee together with the 浪花直播 Center, Urban Institute, and USAID to examine local strategies for realizing the 2030 Agenda.
