Equipping Communities for Sustainable and Equitable Development - Panel Discussion I.
High-Level Panel 1 to mark the International Day of Women and Girls in Science 2013 - 09:10 – 13:00 (US-EST) - Equipping Communities for Sustainable and Equitable Development.
Social structures embrace a great many different communities that unite people around common interests, living conditions and backgrounds. Each community is different, with its own challenges and priorities. In contributing to sustainable development, a specific community is bound to concentrate on its priority nexus. Furthermore, the conditions for effective and sustainable action on the prevailing nexus are generally not in place in its entirety. This high-level panel is organized around fictitious communities that have their main impact on the SDGs under review in 2023. Key stakeholders of these communities will be brought together for a substantive discussion on the means of implementation (SDG17): how to create the enabling environment for accelerated implementation of SDGs 6, 7, 9 and 11.
