During this week-long workshop, participants shared their experiences and expertise, collaborated on various tasks and activities related to some of the 2030 Agenda’s key themes (e.g. climate change, decent work, sustainable consumption, etc.), and developed skills to influence their countries’ political agenda toward the implementation and follow-up of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). At the end of the Academy, all participants were asked to develop individual policy papers to help create synergies between their ongoing work for political transformation and the implementation of the 2030 Agenda in their home countries.
