High-level Political Forum 2024
From 8 to 17 July, UN-Habitat will participate in the High-level Political Forum (HLPF) in New York, emphasizing the role of cities and local governments in achieving the SDGs.
By focusing on the localization of the SDGs and promoting local action, UN-Habitat brings the voices of urban communities and local authorities to the development dialogue.
High-level Political Forum (HLPF) 2024
With current progress falling far short of what is required to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, this year’s High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development will be critical to turbocharging efforts to accelerate SDG implementation in the remaining six years.
The theme for this year’s HLPF is “Reinforcing the 2030 Agenda and eradicating poverty in times of multiple crises: the effective delivery of sustainable, resilient and innovative solutions”. The Forum will review in depth Goal 1. End poverty in all its forms everywhere; Goal 2. End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture; Goal 13. Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts; Goal 16. Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels; and Goal 17. Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development.
