Local 2030 Coalition with the Executive Office of the Secretary-General
The Local2030 Coalition is hosting an official side event in the 2022 High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF) framework. The side event will be held online on July 11, from 7:30 to 9:00 am EDT (New York time).
This session will leverage the views and experiences of its members and partners to advance sustainability at the local level. In addition to analyzing how local action can accelerate the achievement of the SDGs under review in 2022 (SDGs 4, 5, 14, 15, and 17), it will highlight the integrated, indivisible, and interrelated nature of the goals.
To this end, the side-event will bring together different perspectives from UN agencies, national governments, local and regional governments, and civil society. It will also hear the experiences of the Local2030 Hubs working on the reviewed SDGs.
Within this framework, participants will share examples of how their actions are helping to:
1. Mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and other crises.
2. Foster innovative solutions and partnerships to create and harness efforts that can be multiplied at the local level.
3. Reflect on the role of the Local2030 Coalition in supporting their constituencies.
To conclude, the session will hear highlighted remarks from the Joint SDG Fund on innovative approaches and opportunities to finance the SDGs and from the Government of Spain, who will share with us a true example of multi-level coordination and partnership to promote the localization of the SDGs.
