Land Restoration for Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals
An International Resource Panel Think Piece
Land restoration has tremendous potential to help the world limit climate change and achieve its aims for sustainable development. In its latest study the International Resource Panel finds positive spin-offs to support all 17 Sustainable Development Goals agreed to by the world’s nations as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Shaping the Trends of Our Time
Report of the UN Economist Network for the UN 75th Anniversary
This report analyzes how five megatrends (climate change emerging and frontier technologies demographic trends inequalities and urbanization) and their drivers individually and in combination transform societies and affect the ability of countries to achieve the SDGs. However the Agenda is already offtrack. The devastating impacts of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis have further diminished prospects for achieving the SDGs with the greatest adverse impacts falling on countries and people least able to protect themselves and already at greatest risk of being left behind. Consideration is given to the interlinkages among trends and how these trends can be fundamentally shaped by policy so that their individual and collective impacts support sustainable development in its various dimensions. The report concludes by identifying a range of policies and interventions that could be effective in shifting the evolution of the megatrends and establishing the principles that should guide the choice of policies in countries.

The Future is Now - Science for Achieving Sustainable Development
The Report uses the latest scientific assessments evidence bases about good practices and scenarios that link future trajectories to current actions to identify calls to action by a range of stakeholders that can accelerate progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Those actions derive from knowledge about the interconnections across individual Goals and targets recognizing that the true transformative potential of the 2030 Agenda can be realized only through a systemic approach that helps identify and manage trade-offs while maximizing co-benefits.

Sustainable Development Outlook 2019
Gathering Storms and Silver Linings
There has been some significant progress made towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) since their adoption in 2015. Notwithstanding this progress gathering storms of weakening global economic growth rising income inequality unabated global warming and climate change and escalating conflict are posing serious threats to SDG implementation. On the other hand rapid technological advances especially renewable energy technologies offer some hope for accelerating SDG progress. Sustainable Development Outlook 2019: Gathering Storms and Silver Linings identifies some of these key challenges and underscores the imperative of bold and urgent policy actions for addressing them. It identifies the interlinkages among these challenges highlighting the need for addressing them with an integrated approach instead of tackling them as stand-alone challenges to be resolved sequentially and in isolation. The challenges highlighted here of course not only undermine SDG progress; they also risk changing the overall context of sustainable development and because they cut across all the SDGs and affect all countries they can potentially undermine the overall implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Summary of UNECE Trade Facilitation Recommendations
2019 Revised Edition
Over the past 40 years the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) has developed and maintained a series of recommendations and standards for international trade. As the international focal point for trade facilitation recommendations and standards UNECE develops instruments to reduce harmonize and automate procedures and paperwork in international trade. This work is supported by the UN Centre for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT). UN/CEFACT additionally develops and maintains the only international standard for electronic data interchange (UN/EDIFACT - United Nations Electronic Data Interchange for Administration Commerce and Transport). This standard is used to exchange structured information between computers and is critical to the implementation of management techniques such as just-in-time manufacturing.
Practical Implementation of Core Indicators for Sustainable Development Reporting
Case Studies
This publication contains two volumes and presents case studies on practical implementation of core indicators for sustainable development reporting with a view to facilitate the sharing of good practices among Member States. Since the adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in 2015 member States of the United Nations have focused on establishing priorities and plans towards its implementation while also monitoring progress. To support this process a global indicator framework was created establishing 169 targets and 232 indicators for the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Relevant data on companies’ contribution to SDGs is important to reaching targets and indicators but achieving such an objective requires further efforts towards the harmonization and comparability of enterprise data to make them useful in assessing progress. Responding to this challenge UNCTAD has identified the need for baseline SDG indicators for companies which would allow for the effective measurement of the private sector's contribution to sustainable development. Volumes I and II offer a compendium of case studies.
Rapport sur les Pays les Moins Avancés 2020
Des capacités productives pour la nouvelle décennie
« Ce rapport souligne l'importance de l'investissement public pour les pays les moins avancés afin de répondre à leurs besoins à court terme. Il souligne l'importance d'un soutien global aux politiques de niveau méso pour le développement des capacités productives dans le contexte de la résolution des contraintes structurelles et du renforcement de la résilience de ces pays. Il met aussi en exergue que la communauté internationale devrait se rallier à l'appel à une plus grande solidarité et à un soutien international plus fort pour éviter la crise et renforcer la résilience à long terme en encourageant les capacités productives de ces pays. » — Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera Président de la République du Malawi
