This time there will be dedicated sessions scrutinizing SDG 6 on clean water and sanitation; SDG 7 on affordable and clean energy; 9 on industry, innovation and infrastructure; 11 on sustainable cities and communities, and 17 on partnerships for the Goals, and the ways they all interlink.<\/p>\n<p>Besides checking the general flow of the SDGs\u2019 implementation, the Forum participants will take a close look at what help should be provided to the countries with specific needs in achieving the Goals, including small island development states and African counties.<\/p>\n<p>The Forum will hear from 39 countries as they present their Voluntary National Reviews (VNRs).<\/p>\n<p>Over the ten days of the Forum with its programme packed with over 200 official meetings and side-events, participants will consider the accelerated implementation of the 2030 Agenda in all its aspects.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ethiopia\">Ethiopia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ethiopia.
