The path to 2030 must be driven by just and inclusive transitions. Convened by UN Secretary-General António Guterres, the SDG Moment 2024 will demonstrate that transformation is not only possible but essential. It will spotlight the role of just transitions in reshaping food systems to alleviate hunger while preserving nature, advancing the renewable energy revolution for a path to net-zero emissions, and ensuring that digital connectivity empowers youth, women, older people, and persons with disabilities. These transitions are vital to secure a more sustainable and equitable future and the SDG Moment 2024 will emphasize the importance of quality education, skills development, and access to decent work as pillars of the 2030 Agenda.
About the SDG Moment 2024
Building on the momentum from the 2023 SDG Summit and the outcomes of the Summit of the Future, the fourth SDG Moment will highlight inspiring examples of progress from around the world and emphasize the role of political leadership, SDG investment, and global partnerships in achieving food systems transformation, the renewable energy shift, and expanded digital connectivity. The Moment will also explore how enhanced social protection and decent work opportunities can ensure these transitions drive poverty eradication, reduce inequalities, and empower women and young people.
The event will bring together high-level Government representatives alongside inspiring advocacy from youth leaders, businesses, academia, and UN agencies.
