PARTNERSHIPS FOR THE GOALS
Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development
 |
Sustainable development requires partnerships between governments, the private sector and civil society to succeed. These partnerships, which must be based on principles, values and shared vision and goals that focus on people and the planet, are needed at various levels: global, national, regional and local. In order to achieve the objectives of sustainable development, it is essential to mobilize, flexibilize and redirect private resources, including foreign investments, in critical sectors such as sustainable energy, infrastructure and transport, as well as information and communication technologies. It will be up to the public sector to create, review and maintain monitoring frameworks, regulations and rules, and incentive structures that enable such financing, in order to create attractive investment conditions and strengthen sustainable development. In addition, national supervisory mechanisms, such as audit institutions and supervisory functions of legislatures, should be strengthened. Source: INE |
