UN-NGLS launched Report "Advancing Regional Recommendations for the Post-2015 Development Agenda"

UN-NGLS launched the publication of its report "Advancing Regional Recommendations for the Post-2015 Development Agenda," the synthesis of a four-month consultation conducted in writing and via teleconferences with 120 regional civil society networks. The report can be downloaded here [pdf].

This report, presenting recommendations from regional civil society networks, was delivered to the Secretary-General, the President of the General Assembly, Heads of State and Government attending the General Assembly Special Event on the Millennium Development Goals on 25 September, and the Open Working Group on Sustainable Development Goals (OWG on SDGs).

Social Watch recommendations are included in the report.

UN-NGLS has synthesized the findings according to four main objectives for the post-2015 development agenda, which surfaced through clear convergence of priorities identified by regional civil society networks:

• Rebalance power relations for justice 
• Fulfill human rights and overcome exclusion 
• Ensure equitable distribution and safe use of natural resources 
• Establish participatory governance, accountability and transparency
