The High-level Event “Thematic Reviews for an Integrated Follow-Up & Review of the 2030 Agenda” will be held 7-8 July at the DoubleTree by Hilton Metropolitan Hotel in New York, US. Organized by the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS) and partners, the event will address the framing of a thematic review of progress in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals, from an integrated perspective on natural resources in support of the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF). The event will provide an opportunity for representatives from UN Member States, UN organizations, ministries, science and academia, civil society, and the private sector to discuss initial considerations regarding the requirements and framing of natural-resource related thematic review, such as a review of food-security related targets or targets relating to soil and land resources.

Funding for coverage of this meeting provided by IASS, the German Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL) and the Fachagentur Nachwachsende Rohstoffe e.V.
