The Second Regional Session of the UN Science-Policy-Business Forum for Asia and the Pacific Region will focus on two streams: putting environmental and social governance into gear in the Asia-Pacific region; and future-proofing economies, people, and the planet. The second stream will include discussions on harnessing the power of sustainable infrastructure.

The session will convene as a one-day high-level event on 3 October, with the aim of reporting back to and supporting the Fifth Session of the Forum of Ministers and Environment Authorities of the Asia-Pacific region.

Since its inception in 2017, the UN Science-Policy-Business Forum on the Environment (UN-SPBF) has served as the UN Environment Programme’s (UNEP) premier multi-sector convening and engagement platform. The UN-SPBF encourages technology, partnerships, and integrated solutions for nature as key points of interaction towards the achievement of the environmental dimension of the SDGs.
