The specific objectives of the roundtables are to:

I. Establish a shared understanding of the outlook/progress on the goals and of the interlinkages across goals by:

  • Providing an update on progress made since the last assessment.
  • Examining the impact of COVID-19 on progress of the SDGs.

II. Jointly develop recommendations on:

  •  Addressing human rights and gender equality considerations as well as other systemic challenges that are barriers to further progress.
  •  Priorities for strengthening policy coherence in implementation efforts – including through attention to key leverage points.
  •  Promising solutions and innovations (policy, social, institutional, technological, or other) at the national level, especially considering the impacts of COVID-19.
  • Areas for regional cooperation to address the transboundary dimensions of these goals and challenges.
