The Global Climate Action Agenda, a solution provider to implement the SDGs

18 July 2017 @ 6:15 pm

Taking stock of the historic mobilization on climate change sparked by recent COPs of the UNFCCC, the side-event will explore ways to strengthen synergies in the implementation of the agendas on climate and sustainable development through multi-stakeholder partnerships. It will in particular discuss how the Global Climate Action Agenda provides an efficient and inclusive example that can inspire and serve the implementation of the 2030 Agenda.
