Held in partnership with the International Cooperatives Alliance, UN DESA, OHCHR, Peace in Our Cities, and the Pathfinders for Peaceful, Just, and Inclusive Societies, CIC-NYU, this cross-regional and cross-stakeholder VNR Lab will focus on the intersection of the SDGs under review and SDG16, with additional views on how cooperatives and a multistakeholder approach advance sustainable change. As such, it will:
- Highlight how peace, justice, inclusion, human rights, and adaptive institutions underpin progress across the SDGs under review, drawing from Voluntary National and Local Reviews.
- Examine how an SDG16 approach advances accountable and resilient governance at all levels, including through rights-based approaches to infrastructure, green transitions and climate, public safety, and service delivery.
- Elevate cooperatives as mechanisms to reduce inequalities, strengthen institutional trust, expand economic inclusion, and foster social cohesion, with additional attention on building alliances for sustainable urban finance.
