Welcome to the United Nations
The Latin American Federation of Cities, Municipalities and Associations (FLACMA) and the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), through its Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG), are co-organizing a capacity development workshop with the objective of applying the contents of UN DESA’s Curriculum on Governance for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in particular the main modules of the toolkits on Changing Mindsets in Public Institutions to Implement the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, Innovation and Digital Government for Public Service Delivery, and Effective National to Local Public Governance for SDG Implementation.
The toolkits are part of the Curriculum on Governance for the SDGs which was developed by UN DESA/DPIDG. DPIDG’s mission is to advance effective, accountable, and inclusive governance and public institutions for sustainable development, including through innovation, digital government, and digital transformation. The Curriculum on Governance for the SDGs aims to promote critical understanding of sustainable development issues, enhance governance capacity, and strengthen public servants' awareness of their active role in contributing to the achievement of the SDGs.
The Latin American Federation of Cities, Municipalities and Associations (FLACMA) is an international organization that brings together and represents more than 16,000 Municipalities and Local Governments in Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as 33 regional associations, whose vocation is the municipal and regional development of the region. FLACMA adheres to, and promotes, the conventions and agreements regarding local and regional governments signed by the national states of the region. It is the official representation in the region of the Union of Cities and Local Governments, UCLG, a world organization representing subnational levels of government.
