Expert Group to Prepare Report Analysing Climate and SDG Synergies, Aiming to Maximize Action Impact
An international group of fourteen experts from diverse backgrounds has been co-convened by UN DESA and UNFCCC secretariat in May 2023 to prepare a report building the evidence base for how action tackling both the climate emergency and sustainable development challenges synergistically can be a win-win solution, maximizing impact.
The initial report will be launched in September 2023 on the margins of the UN SDG Summit, marking the midpoint of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and the Climate Action Summit being convened by the UN Secretary-General in support of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. These two critical global agendas are both far off-track.
The most recent UN Sustainable Development Goals Report showed that "years or even decades of development progress have been halted or reversed" as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and other global crises, and called for an "urgent rescue effort" for the SDGs. The recent report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change showed that the window is fast closing to make a course correction and limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, as called for under the Paris Agreement, to avoid the worst impacts.
