Summary
This year, during the High-Level Political Forum 2024 (HLPF) country delegations, the scientific community, NGOs, and other key stakeholders reconvene for a second time to continue discussing the role of science in SDG acceleration. Science Day is an initiative co-convened by SEI, UNDP, UN SDSN, ISC, and UN DESA to position the need for including scientific evidence in the decision-making around the Sustainable Development Goals and Agenda 2030.

This event will offer an informal space to discuss and show evidence of how science can help us close the SDG implementation gap. We will exchange views on potential strategies to ensure the acceleration of SDG implementation is as evidence-based, strategic, and effective as possible.
It will be the second edition of Science Day (see the highlights from last year), and we remain fully committed to fostering meaningful dialogue and collaborations around scientific discoveries, methodologies, and tools supporting policy action in an integrated and evidenced-based manner.
Science Day is co-convened by SEI, UNDP, SDSN, ISC and UN DESA.
