Business will help governments deliver the SDGs. As UN member states gather to review SDG implementation at the High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) in New York, join leading companies in making the business voice loud and clear. At this year’s HLPF, we’ll be strongly engaged at the SDG Business Forum on 18 July and at a joint event with UNDESA (Business and the SDGs - Moving from Aspiration to Action) on 19 July. Register to attend now!

The FSB will deliver its final recommendations of the Task force for Climate-related Financial Disclosure Recommendations later this month, following a period public consultation earlier this year. The SDGs will not be achieved unless climate change is addressed. We urge G20 leaders to give the recommendations their full endorsement, to provide an important step in reaching the Paris Agreement and keeping global warming well below a 2°C average temperature increase. |
