Italy's sustainable development progress to be reviewed at UN forum

An upcoming event titled "ASviS Appointment: Italy in the Mirror of the Voluntary National Review. The Day After New York and the Choices for 2030" will convene to discuss Italy's progress on sustainable development goals. Scheduled for 3 PM, the meeting will serve as a platform to analyze Italy's Voluntary National, Local and Youth Review, which was presented at the United Nations' High-Level Political Forum (HLPF).

The event seeks to bridge Italy and New York, fostering a dialogue between institutional representatives and civil society members. Discussions will focus on the content of the VNR, the discrepancies between stated commitments and implemented policies, and the necessary actions to bolster Italy's National Strategy for Sustainable Development. The aim is to move beyond mere reporting and establish a concrete roadmap for achieving the 2030 Agenda.

Notable participants include Enrico Giovannini, Scientific Director of ASviS. Joining via video link from New York will be Giorgio Marrapodi, the Permanent Representative of Italy to the UN, and Massimo Pallottino, Coordinator of the Studies and Advocacy Unit at Caritas Italiana. Representatives from the Italian delegation to the HLPF will also be present, contributing to the comprehensive assessment of Italy's sustainable development efforts.
