This was the first virtual forum on sustainability organized by ICLEI
Yesterday, 28 October, was the final day of a 3-week long global forum organized by ICLEI – the international organization that seeks to promote cohesive sustainable development, spearheaded by local administrations. The organization’s headquarters are in Bonn, Germany but this year the forum was organized in a virtual format, which also helped bring in its largest attendance. Some 4500 participants from more than 150 countries tuned in to the high-profile event, which boasted António Guterres, the United Nations Secretary-General, as one of its many speakers.
This was a forum for urban leaders from all walks of life, such as public, private and the third sector to debate, get up to date and devise commonly oriented action in line with the UN goals for sustainable development for this decade.
Mr Guterres expressed the wish that this event would serve as a warm-up session and a launching pad for concrete actions to the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow exactly a year from now.
Out of the numerous workshops and conferences that took place over the past weeks, it is worth mentioning that indeed some specific actions on sustainability were announced. Among them were:
