Special Events
In collaboration with key partners, UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA) curates a set of high-profile special events for the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF), galvanizing broad ownership and engagement on the SDGs from key sectors, such as higher education institutions, private sector, local authorities, parliamentarians, among others. Most of these events are recurring every year under different themes. The 2024 events will be held either fully in-person at the UNHQ in New York or virtually.
