Leaders from the United Nations, national governments, private sector and prominent institutions come together during the 2020 High Level Political Forum to discuss the future of the Decade of Action in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis. Now more than ever, the world is in need of an economic transformation – one that promotes both the sustainable well-being of individuals and of the environment in tandem. The choices that policymakers, businesses and individuals make now will determine if we prosper and accelerate a more sustainable world, or not. As we embark upon the United Nations’ Decade of Action, the Partnership for Action on Green Economy (PAGE) is gearing up its support for the implementation of the SDGs by 2030.

 

This event will feature high-level conversation on a renewed commitment towards the Sustainable Development Goals and climate and biodiversity targets, highlighting the ways in which an inclusive green economic recovery can support the Decade of Action.
