The ninth meeting of the Forum of the Countries of Latin America and the Caribbean on Sustainable Development is taking place in Chile amid concerns that a new era of uncertainty and geopolitical fragmentation poses major difficulties for achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) is hosting the meeting, which ends on Thursday, to forge agreements and share experiences that would bolster the fulfilment of the 2030 Agenda.
Delegates have been told that it is fundamental to strengthen multilateral action, regional cooperation and international partnerships in order to renew the collective commitment and accelerate progress towards the fulfilment of the 2030 Agenda.
