- Increase private-public partnerships in SCP for multi-stakeholder cooperative efforts in Green Growth and achieving SDGs;
- Integrating SCP with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Green Growth strategies, programs and action plans.
The supporting enablers and sub-themes are aimed at engaging industry and business, as well as decision-makers in the public and private sectors, to drive Green Growth, and are addressed in the parallel Roundtable sessions. These sub-themes are:
