It was an honour today to open the 2026 High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development.
In my opening remarks, I stressed that “the world does not need another catalogue of challenges. We know the challenges.” What we need is greater coherence, stronger partnerships, more effective international cooperation, faster implementation, and, most of all, better delivery and impact on the ground.
Now, with less than five years remaining until 2030, the challenge before us is not simply to move faster. It is to work differently, collectively and resolve.
Implementation can no longer be approached one Goal, one sector or one institution at a time. It requires policies that are integrated, partnerships that are stronger and international cooperation that is more effective.
