On June 28-30 more than 200 delegates, including high-level ministers and technical experts from 18 Caribbean countries, met to advance and accelerate regional action for eliminating extreme poverty, reducing inequality, and protecting the planet. It is projected that “Caribbean Action 2030” will evolve into a movement in the post-conference period to encourage information sharing advocacy and highlighting best practices, challenges and solutions in SDG implementation in the region.
This meeting on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) was hosted by the Jamaican Government in
partnership with The University of the West Indies and the meeting funder, the United Nations. The 17 SDGs, commonly known around the globe as Agenda 2030, formed the main agenda items at the Caribbean Action 2030: Regional Conference on the Sustainable Development Goals, where the delegates sought to advance regional action in the areas of resources mobilisation, civil society participation, strong evidence base for policy and capacity building.
