UN ECOSOC Annual Ministerial Review(a)
|
For the UN ECOSOC Annual Ministerial Review on Sustainable Development, July 2008, Stakeholder Forum conducted a global stakeholder consultation on sustainable development and the 7th Millennium Development Goal, providing perspectives and recommendations for the consideration of the review. |
There were also two parallel high level Roundtables which focused on ‘The role of ecosystem services for sustainable development’ and ‘Meeting the challenges of water and sanitation’. As part of the engagement process for the AMR, Stakeholder Forum consulted a diversity of stakeholders on progress, obstacles and constraints in achieving the three targets outlined in the 7th Millennium Development Goal (MDG7) to ‘ensure environmental sustainability’. Through surveys, questionnaires and telephone interviews, Stakeholder Forum produced a ‘synthesis document’ of stakeholder views, identifying some of the key issues identified by a diversity of stakeholders. This document was presented to government representatives in time for the High Level Dialogue.
