These include eradicating poverty, ensuring food security, expanding energy access, advancing digital transformation, and mitigating the impacts of climate change.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals will also require substantial and sustained investment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Excellencies,<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At the start of the seventy-ninth session, the General Assembly adopted the Pact for the Future.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This Pact holds the transformative potential to truly catalyse progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals through multilateralism.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>While it is not an end in itself, the Pact provides a framework\u00a0\u00a0 for reinvigorating\u00a0 global efforts towards the achievement of the SDGs<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To foster the implementation of the Pact and as part of my priorities for the 79<sup>th<\/sup> General Assembly Session I will facilitate the mainstreaming of the Pact\u2019s commitments into existing intergovernmental processes as well as organize interact dialogues Member States. I will also hold a town hall meeting with civil society organizations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that the Pact underscores clear support for a Sustainable Development Goal Stimulus aimed at closing the financing gap \u2013 an ever-wideninggap which currently stands at approximately $4 trillion.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To close this gap, it is important that\u00a0 donors\u00a0 fulfil their commitments and that we encourage the private sector to invest in sustainable development.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, I urge all delegations to use the upcoming Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development to address the financing gap.\u00a0 This will ultimately ensure that the needs of developing countries are better served.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Critical discussions on reforming the international financial architecture need to take place.<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, I will convene one of my priority meetings in collaboration with the International Parliamentary Union focused on scaling up action for the Sustainable Development Goals which I hope will provide the opportunity to explore further areas of advancement on the following:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>reform of the international financial architecture;<\/li>\n<li>improvements in international tax cooperation;<\/li>\n<li>promoting international development assistance; and<\/li>\n<li>domestic resource mobilisation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Excellencies,<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is with great pride that I join the President of the Economic and Social Council in advocating for the peace and development nexus.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I am happy to share that we will convene a joint meeting on small arms and light weapons. This, as a natural follow up, to the Economic and Social Council\u2019s Special Meeting \u2013Haiti\u2019s Children Cannot Wait,\u00a0 in which I was pleased to participate.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, during our joint briefing on Monday, the President of the Economic and Social Council and I emphasized the importance of collaboration and reaffirmed our mutual commitment to use every opportunity to work together on matters related to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development is one such opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In fact, it is important that this year, we\u00a0 focus, amongst others, on Sustainable Development Goal 14.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Third United Nations Ocean Conference presents an opportunity to advance action on Goal 14: conserving and sustainably using the ocean, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development.<\/p>\n<p>As we discuss these critical priorities today, I thank the President of the Economic and Social Council once again for the opportunity to address this retreat.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to hearing the outcomes of these deliberations and to working together to turbocharge progress on the Sustainable Development Goals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I thank you.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Media
