Here you can find more information about the speakers and event! This HagueTalks is a hybrid event. We are at the halfway point of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set in 2015 by all 193 members of the United Nations. Will we reach them by 2030, or will we fail to organize ourselves to generate the impact required? In a context full of mutually reinforcing crises (conflicts, pandemic, climate change…), are the SDGs a mission impossible? Or are there sparks of hope that mean we can still achieve these Global Goals? And if so, what is required from each and all of us? What power and ideas do young people have for the future? And what motivates our speakers to pursue a career in global development, despite the huge challenges?This event is part of a visit Achim Steiner (UNDP Administrator) to The Hague. He will speak with young people, civil society, parliament and government to discuss how the Netherlands and UNDP can together generate lasting impact for a more just and sustainable world.Achim Steiner and Kitty van der Heijden (Director-General, Dutch MFA) will also share their personal drives and share what they believe are the challenges and reasons for optimism. They will challenge the audience to think about what role each of us can play, regardless of age or background. Of course, they also look forward to being challenged by you!
