The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), through its Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) and its Project Office on Governance (UNPOG), and in collaboration with the UN Resident Coordinator's Office and UNDP Philippines, is organizing a Philippine Mayors Forum on Effective Governance for Sustainable Development to Accelerate the 2030 Agenda in the Philippines- Sharing Global and Local Experiences on 26-27 April 2023.
The Forum is being organized in response to the expressed need for capacity development on SDG implementation and to bring to the Philippines the knowledge generated at the UN DESA Regional Symposium 2022 held in the Republic of Korea. The workshop will be attended by Mayors from cities and municipalities across the Philippines, National Government officials, UN representatives, and other invited international and local experts and officials joining as resource speakers.
The Forum is based on UN DESA's Curriculum on Governance for the Sustainable Development Goals. The Curriculum aims to promote a critical understanding of sustainable development issues, enhance governance capacity, and strengthen public servants' awareness of their active role in contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It also recognizes the important role of local governments in accelerating development.
The Forum will be conducted in Mandaluyong City for most international attendees through the Zoom platform. The Forum will be conducted in English.
