Toward the SDG Summit 2023: High-impact trade initiatives for accelerating the SDGs
Descrição
UNCTAD will host the third iteration of the UN Trade Forum to take stock of trade policies that are best tailored to the challenges that the world faces. Discussions will focus on approaches that will make trading systems more resilient, particularly in developing countries, clarify the effectiveness and feasibility of a set of trade-related “high-impact initiatives” to respond to global challenges, and to expedite progress towards the SDGs.
This event provides a platform to identify cooperation frameworks to contribute to the 2023 SDG Summit (September, 2023), the UNFCCC COP 28 (November 2023), and the 13th WT0 Ministerial Conference (early 2024). The Forum will also set the scene for the UNCTAD@60 celebrations in 2024.
The UN Trade Forum will be organized in four plenary sessions:
1) The South-South trade partnership for accelerating the SDGs achievement
2) Session 2: Building a sustainable ocean economy for development
3) SDG 12 Sustainable Consumption and Production: the contribution of competition and consumer policies
4) Gender gaps and digital solutions
