SUMMARY:Webinar 2: Role of the Regional Sustainable Development Forums in ensuring open and inclusive SDG monitoring (FR)
DESCRIPTION:Le suivi de la réalisation des ODD nécessite une responsabilisation à de nombreux niveaux\, des instances locales et nationales aux forums régionaux et mondiaux. De plus en plus\, les forums régionaux sont considérés comme un point crucial du cycle d’examen pour garantir la comparaison et un apprentissage efficace par les pairs. De nombreux participants ont souligné le rôle des forums régionaux comme étant un espace plus ouvert pour le dialogue entre la société civile et les gouvernements; ainsi que des espaces plus dynamiques de collaboration et d’apprentissage. \nCette année\, le Forum régional pour l’Afrique s’est déroulé au Zimbabwe les 24 et 28 février et le Forum régional de la CEE-ONU s’est déroulé dans un format virtuel le 19 mars et les Forums régionaux de la CESAP sont également passés à un format virtuel mais d’autres forums régionaux ont été reportés en raison de coronavirus. \nDans ce série de webinaires\, nous nous avons reçu des présentations par les coordinateurs clés impliqués ces dernières années dans les divers forums régionaux et nous nous avons eu une discussion sur les recommandations sur la manière de renforcer davantage ces forums. \nNotes et présentations: \nSérie de webinaires sur les forums regionaux de developpement durable (avril 2020) \nUN Regional Forums webinar_7 April 2020 FR

SUMMARY:Role of the Regional Sustainable Development Forums in ensuring open and inclusive SDG monitoring (ENG)
DESCRIPTION:The monitoring of delivery of the SDGs requires accountability at many levels from the local and national\, to the regional and global forums. Increasingly the regional forums are being held up as a crucial point in the review cycle to ensure comparison and effective peer learning. Many participants have highlighted the role of regional forums as being a more open space for dialogue between civil society and governments; as well as more dynamic spaces for collaboration and learning. \nThis year\, the Africa Regional Forum went ahead in Zimbabwe on 24-28 February and the UNECE Regional Forum took place in a virtual format on 19 March and UNESCAP Regional Forums has also shifted to a virtual format but other regional forums have been postponed due to coronavirus. \nIn this webinar we will hear from key coordinators involved over recent years in the regional forums and will have time for a discussion on recommendations on how to further strengthen these forums \nNotes & presentations: \nWebinars_Regional Forums 6_7_8 April 2020 NOTES \nUN Regional Forums webinar_6 April 2020 \nAbout UNECE-RCEM April 2020 \nStrengthening the Regional Dimension of SDG Implementation- Forus
