Where and when: Tuesday 18 June  | Belgian Royal Library in Brussels

The European Commissioner for Economy Paolo Gentiloni and the Belgian Federal Minister of Climate, Environment, Sustainable Development and Green Deal Zakia Khattabi are coorganizing a high-level conference on the theme ‘On Track to 2030? Delivering on the Sustainable Development Goals in the EU’. The conference will take place on 18 June 2024 at the Royal Belgian Library in Brussels. Her Majesty Queen Mathilde will give opening remarks.

The aim of the event, which will coincide with the publication of the Eurostat SDG monitoring report, is to review the progress made toward the SDGs during the current Commission’s mandate as well as the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the EU. The European Commission presented its first-ever EU Voluntary Review on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and integrated the SDGs into its cycle of economic policy coordination known as the European Semester. Belgium has also submitted its Voluntary National Review and further integrated the SDGs into federal policy formulation.

The event also aims to identify areas where more progress is needed ahead of the next legislature and the UN Summit of the Future. It seeks to galvanise the support of political actors across all levels of governance to commit to full implementation of the SDGs in this decade of action.

Practical information

The conference will consist of a high-level opening session, an engaging opening lecture, three conversation-style panel sessions, and a closing address. It will also feature a networking lunch and a closing reception. The conference will be in English.
