Concept Note
ABOUT
The 2030 Agenda and its implementation across countries and levels of government provides a shared strategic framework for international co-operation to transition towards more sustainable and resilient societies and economies. SDGs measurement and policy coherence can bring together all relevant stakeholders around the same table to understand what actions are working and how to scale them to accelerate progress based on evidence.
This side event will provide an opportunity for sharing practical experiences on how governments are mobilising various tools at national and local levels- such as strategic planning, budgeting, regulation, public procurement, monitoring and evaluation - and building capacities to break out of sectoral silos to accelerate progress on the SDGs.
This side-event aims to:
- foster peer-learning dialogue on the greatest challenges facing governments in aligning efforts for building back better with the SDGs, and the most effective ways to enhance SDGs measurement and policy coherence for sustainable development.
- share practical experiences from the joint work between OECD and a number of countries in achieving the SDGs through evidence-based and integrated policy making.
- build a community of practice under the auspices of the HLPF/VNR preparations on policy coherence for sustainable development.
