NITI Aayog & UN Hold Workshop on Upcoming GoI–UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework 2023–27

In News

NITI Aayog and United Nations organized a day-long national validation workshop on the upcoming Government of India–UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2023–27.

Details

This was the first such congregation that saw the participation of officials from 30 Union ministries, heads of 26 UN agencies, and representatives from all states and union territories.
The previous GoI–UNSDF 2018–22 was an agenda of cooperation, results and strategies to achieve national development priorities and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The framework is the single most important instrument capturing the entirety of 26 UN entities’ plans and programmes in India. As the 2018–22 framework entered its final year of implementation, GoI and UN committed to renewing it for another five years, 2023–27.
The 2023–27 cooperation framework will be signed as India completes 75 years of independence.

The new framework has identified six outcome areas:
(i) health and well-being
(ii) nutrition and food
(iii) quality education
(iv) economic growth and decent work
(v) environment, climate, wash and resilience
(vi) empowering people, communities, and institutions.
