The 2023 Summit on the SDGs will take place on September 18 and 19, 2023 in New York. It will mark the start of a new phase of accelerated progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals, with high-level political guidance on transformative and accelerated actions leading to 2030.
Convened by the President of the General Assembly, the Summit will mark the halfway point in the timeline for achieving the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals. It will be the centerpiece of the General Assembly’s high-level week. It will respond to the impact of the multiple and interlocking crises facing the world, and should reignite a sense of hope, optimism and enthusiasm for the 2030 Agenda.
AN OPPORTUNITY
The FSWP will share its main advocacy messages on the importance of good waste management for achieving all the SDGs.
Indeed...
- The goal of providing clean drinking water for over 7 billion people on earth will only be achieved if waste is collected and treated worldwide.
- Plastic pollution of air, water and soil will only stop increasing if waste is collected and treated worldwide.
- GHG emissions will fall drastically if we eliminate waste - this means developing a sober and circular approach in order to reduce waste volumes and transform all remaining waste into resources.
