Lead and Engage to Scale-Up SDG Impact

2020 has seen a rough start with the COVID-19 pandemic shaking Europe and the world to its core. As we battle the repercussions of the pandemic, it is clear that ‘business as usual’ is no longer an option. We need to change the way we think, learn, work, produce, consume, and invest. And we need to do it together. With so much on the line, we all have a duty to collaborate towards the adoption of a sustainable and inclusive approach to growth.

For this reason, the 2020 edition of the European SDG Summit will focus on “Impactful Partnerships to Build Back Better”.
