The 2024 Arab Regional Forum on Sustainable Development (RFSD) will take place ahead of the 2024 UN High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF). The annual, intergovernmental forum aims to assess progress and exchange knowledge, best practices, and policy solutions to support the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, in line with regional priorities.
Organized by the UN Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA), the Forum will provide the space for an in-depth review of the Goals to be reviewed by the HLPF in 2024: SDG 1 (no poverty); SDG 2 (zero hunger); SDG 13 (climate action); SDG 16 (peace, justice and strong institutions); and SDG 17 (partnership for the Goals). The Forum will also support presentation of voluntary national reviews (VNRs) at the 2024 HLPF.
The RFSD report and Chair’s summary will be submitted to the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and conveyed to the HLPF.
