How will we change this reality?<\/p>\n<p>There is only one solution, he said, and we call it transformation. A complete overhaul of the way we approach and do things.<\/p>\n<p>This approach is especially relevant for the Sustainable Development Goals, which we know are far off track.<\/p>\n<p>But quote \u201cthis year is packed with opportunities for action\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The President then outlined some of the events which were also raised on Tuesday \u2013 such as the SDG Summit and the Summit of the Future in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>He also asked, what can we do now to change the implementation of the SDGs.<\/p>\n<p>The President said that a pillar of his approach to crisis management is the involvement of science in the decision shaping processes of the General Assembly.<\/p>\n<p>To this end, he will be holding scientific briefings on the 7<sup>th<\/sup> of February.

He said that we live in a time of unprecedented and permanent humanitarian emergencies.<\/p>\n<p>Quote \u201cI urge you to put your political divergences aside and remember that we have a shared responsibility to hear the voice of those in need \u2013 and to help them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His full remarks are in your inbox and online: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/pga\/77\/2023\/01\/19\/pga-remarks-at-joint-briefing-with-ecosoc-president\/\">https:\/\/www.un.org\/pga\/77\/2023\/01\/19\/pga-remarks-at-joint-briefing-with-ecosoc-president\/<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>LÄ¢¹½ÊÓÆµAR NEW YEAR<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lunar New Year is this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Last night the President took part in an event to mark the joyous occasion, organized by the Chinese Mission to the United Nations.<\/p>\n<p>The President said that a we say good-bye to the roaring Tiger and greet the gentler Rabbit, he is optimistic that Member States will make progress on the General Assembly\u2019s priorities of crisis management and transformation.<\/p>\n<p><em>Related tweet: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ_PGA\/status\/1615932756424552449\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ_PGA\/status\/1615932756424552449<\/a><\/em><em> \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>QUESTIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Spokesperson was asked which Foreign Ministers the President was due to meet tomorrow.
