SDG Watch Europe has the pleasure to invite you to our launch event for the new SDG Alliance – MEPs for Agenda 2030 this Thursday (September 23rd) at 11am CET.
Please find the Zoom link here.
About the SDG Alliance:
The purpose of this (informal) SDG Alliance is to bring together like-minded MEPs from different political groups and different committees to promote the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the European Parliament. The Alliance is part of the wider Parliamentarians for the Global Goals network.
MEP members of the SDG Alliance believe that the SDGs should be at the center of policy making in the Parliament and the EU more broadly. We hope that through our actions we can contribute to mainstreaming the SDGs across the work of the European Parliament. Although this alliance is informal, we hope to position the group to achieve formal intergroup status under the next mandate.
The purpose of the SDG Alliance Advisory Group:
We aim to offer strategic advice and support on EU policy and political processes to the SDG Alliance in order to further its strategic mission to promote the SDGs in the EUP.
