Halfway to 2030: Raising the Bar for SDG Leadership

Overview

As we approach the midpoint to accomplish the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, one thing is clear: the world is not delivering progress towards the 17 SDGs at the necessary pace and scale. While it still may be possible to achieve the SDGs by 2030, it will take urgent, scalable multi-stakeholder action to accelerate progress dramatically. During this engaging session, Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, Sanda Ojiambo, Assistant Secretary-General and CEO of the UN Global Compact and leading Chief Executive Officers will take stock of the private sector’s contribution to advance the SDGs and challenge companies to demonstrate bold leadership by setting measurable, credible and ambitious targets  – going beyond ‘business as usual’ and towards the transformational change needed to achieve the Global Goals by 2030. Invitation-Only.
