Join us at the YSE Workshop
We invite you to join us and our friends in the business of doing good at the Dialogue on “Partnerships for the Sustainable Development Goals” to learn and share, as well as to meet the aspiring changemakers.
Multi-stakeholder partnerships embody the integrated approach needed for driving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). SDG 17 – Partnerships for the Goals, seeks to encourage and promote effective public, private and civil society partnerships. To achieve such partnerships, we need to understand: What the SDGs actually mean for each sector, and how one can take action to make the global goals a reality?
This dialogue examines the relationships between the various stakeholders – government, businesses, non-profits and social enterprises, discussing how stakeholders can develop effective partnerships across sectors to achieve the SDGs. We warmly invite you to join us in this dialogue to discuss how we can work together towards transforming our world.
