To #LeaveNoOneBehind means putting equality and inclusion at the centre of development. It is the most important commitment in the #2030Agenda. The #GlobalGoals are not reached until no one is left behind! We can make it happen together #ACT4SDGs #SDGs @UNDESA @GlobalGoalsUN

"We still have a lot of work to do in Sweden, if we want to achieve the #SDGs. We must work harder [...] in providing equal opportunities for all, including people with #disabilities, #LGBTI persons, minorities, and newly arrived immigrants."

[Rebecka H Jorquera @RebeckaReb]

To implement the #2030Agenda, we need political will and wisdom, an enabling environment and to take the difficult long-term desicions, we need #partnerships, action and ambition. #HLPF2019 #SDGs today we must create the world of the future!

[Rebecka H Jorquera @RebeckaReb]

The world doesn’t need power, we need action, to get there we need courage. Diverse challenges demand diverse solutions, business as usual is not progress. If you think of which decision to take next, take the one that demands most courage. Strong words during @HLPF2019 opening.
