Deputy PM Ho Duc Phoc to attend Hamburg Sustainability Conference

The summit, scheduled to take place from October under the auspices of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, is driven by the vision that reaching the SDGs requires interdisciplinary and trustful collaboration among the international community.

The conference aims to foster new partnerships and collective action of those who are willing to commit to action: global policymakers, private sector leaders, academia experts, and civil society representatives. 

Beyond convening participants from politics, business, science and civil society, the conference supports the efforts of the United Nations by informing citizens locally and globally about the urgency of achieving the SDGs and inspiring them to contribute. This awareness aims to bring much-needed new hope regarding what the world is capable of when working better together.

According to UN Secretary-General António Guterres, the SDGs are in great difficulty. He calls for a rescue plan to save humanity and our planet. 

In the face of increasing geopolitical crises, challenges are continually growing, new impetus is needed to improve the ability of the global community to collaborate and advance the implementation of the SDGs by 2030./.
