Finding
In 2008, well before the adoption of the 2030 Agenda, Hungary created the Office of the Ombudsman for Future Generations, tasked to advocate for the interests of future generations at the national level. Its mandate includes defending the right to a healthy environment, preserving physical and mental health in connection with sustainable development, and protecting the environmental and cultural heritage of the nation. During the VNR process, the Ombudsman supported non-state actor participation, advocated for inclusion of stakeholder inputs, and provided recommendations on specific SDGs included in the VNR report. In doing so, the Office of the Ombudsman for Future Generations organized a civil society roundtable for the SDGs to enhance the national appropriation of the Goals, and channeled the conclusions into the VNR report.
