Join us for the Global Launching of the the Report “Progressing National SDG Implementation: An independent assessment of the Voluntary National Review reports submitted to the United Nations High-level Political Forum in 2017″.

This report was commissioned by the following civil society organisations : the Canadian Council for International Co-operation (CCIC);  International Forum of National NGO Platforms(IFP-FIP); Action for Sustainable Development (A4SD); Together 2030; Catholic Agency for Overseas Development (CAFOD); and WWF-UK.

 Background

Voluntary National Reviews (VNRs) are one of the key mechanisms to track the implementation progress of the commitments enshrined in the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Presented annually at the UN High Level Political Forum (HLPF), they aim to promote accountability to citizens, support effective international cooperation and foster exchange of best practices and mutual learning.

This online launch will share the main findings of a study commissioned by civil society, analyzing the VNRs and a sample of civil society reports produced in 2017 for the HLPF. The assessment identifies best practices and provides recommendations for improving implementation and the VNR process and reports, as well as strengthening accountability around the implementation of the 2030 Agenda.

The launch will also include a roundtable discussion with panelists from different sectors sharing their perspectives on the independent assessment as well as on the VNR process.
