The 2023 SDG Summit, held September 2023 during the United Nations General Assembly high-level week, marks a moment of critical reflection at the midpoint of the 2030 Agenda. During this time, Heads of State and Government will gather at the United Nations Headquarters in New York to follow up and review the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
In response to this, SDSN's experts, who span SDG focus areas and geographic regions, have contributed their knowledge and recommendations to an op-ed series on how governments can achieve the SDGs in the next seven years and beyond.
