 Winners of a two-day series of SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) workshops have been announced.
The SDG3 team came in the first place for laying out a strategy for good health and well-being. The SDG 10 team won the second place for suggesting viable solutions to reduce inequalities, and the SDG 5 team came in the third place for their recommendations for tackling gender inequality.
The workshops, under the title ‘SDGs in Action in Collaboration with the United Nations’, saw world experts, scientists, government officials and other key stakeholders form 14 discussion groups corresponding to the SDGs in order to identify solutions to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals that could be applied to local and global purposes.
Present at the closing ceremony was Reem Ebrahim Al Hashemi, UAE Minister of State for International Cooperation. Macharia Kamau, Permanent Representative of Kenya to the UN and Co-chair of STI Forum, presented a trophy of appreciation to each winner.
As part of its support in the implementation of the winning ideas, the Government of Dubai will put together a comprehensive implementation road map that will be showcased in New York in May 2017.
