1000 days of the SDGs: Is International Geneva Walking the Talk?

, -

Auditorium Ivan Pictet | Maison de la Paix

Organised by the Global Health Centre, in cooperation with the network THINK_SDGs

Add to Calendar

Realising Agenda 2030 will require changing "business as usual" in the international policy arena. But have International Geneva actors adapted their way of working to support multisectoral, multistakeholder SDG efforts? What are the main challenges and opportunities of promoting transformative change within the context of International Geneva? What is the impact of these global transformations at the national and local level?
