UCLG Executive Bureau Meeting: Amplifying Leaders' Voice for SDGs ad NUA Implementation

UCLG, the world secretariat of UCLG ASPAC, once again amplified the importance of sustainable development and New Urban Agenda Implementation to its member cities through its Executive Bureau Meeting 2018, taking theme “Inclusive and Safe Cities: Key for Sustainable Development”. Held in Strasbourg (France) from 23 to 26 of May 2018, this assembly was especially paramount as this is the first time for the event to be jointly organised by UN-Habitat, in which dialogue between Ministers and Mayors was made possible. Discussions and debates emerging in the carefully designed sessions would also be paving the way towards the High Level Political Forum in July 2018.
