📌 We kicked off the day at #HLPF by meeting with European representatives to present Catalonia's perspective on the role of regional governments in localising the #SDGs and shaping the post-2030 agenda
Organized by @Platforma4Dev and @CCRECEMR
At UCLG and through the @GlobalTaskforce, we have demonstrated that VLRs and VSRs can enormously enrich VNR processes.
At the VNR Lab on VLRs within the #HLPF2026: @Anna_C_intnal, Head of Research @uclg_org; Dirk Wurm, Mayor of Augsburg; @yadelsubervi Mayor of Neiva & member of @fedomurd; Sengul Altan Arslan, Deputy SG, Union of Municipalities of Türkiye and Eider Inunciaga, Councillor for #2030Agenda @bilbao_udala highlighted how implementation is progressing across different territories and affecting people’s lives #Listen2Cities
“As we enter the final stretch towards 2030 and prepare for the post-2030 discussion, our organized constituency must be ready to bring a clear political voice, a proven record of delivery, and broad political coalitions around the principles and priorities that should guide the next global development agenda”.
