ISS at UN Civil Society briefing: ISS work and SDGs

On February 25th ISS participated at UN USG / DG of the United Nations Office at Geneva Bi-Annual Civil Society Briefing.
Mr Moller strongly encouraged all NGOs to defend and promote the SDGs at a local, national, regional and international level during his intervention. He finished by stating that "Civil society actors are essential partners for the work of the United Nations. NGOs are best at bringing voices and practices from local and national level to Geneva to contribute to intergovernmental discussions. You bring knowledge, expertise and new ideas and solutions". At the ISS upcoming International Council in Melbourne next April, ISS partners will have the opportunity to discuss ISS work as it links to the UN sustainable development goals (SDGs) through a preliminary study undertaken by the General Secretariat
