Looking ahead: Culture in Sustainable Development in 2024 and Beyond

Catch up on the latest from the “Looking ahead: Culture in Sustainable Development in 2024 and Beyond” webinar held on January 23, 2024.

The event delved into the #Culture2030Goal campaign’s achievements and ongoing efforts, including discussions on the future developments for the inclusion of a Culture Goal in the 2030 UN agenda. Moderated by Jordi Pascual (UCLG) and Lars Ebert (CAE), the key topics of the panel included:

  • the impact of excluding culture from development plans
  • strategies for integrating culture into various texts and initiatives
  • the potential of culture to enhance the achievement of broader goals

Speakers, including  UNESCO representatives and UN Special Rapporteur, emphasised the significance of recognising culture as a pillar of sustainable development and highlighted upcoming milestones like the UN Summit of the Future in September 2024.  Light was shed on the agency’s advocacy efforts and the panelists addressed persisting challenges in including culture in national agendas.
