#UNSDG Goal 17: Revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the global economy is projected to contract sharply, by 3 per cent, in 2020, experiencing its worst recession since the Great Depression. Strong international cooperation is needed now more than ever to ensure that countries have the means to recover from the pandemic and build back better.

EUTEC Chamber believes that a successful development agenda requires inclusive partnerships — at the global, regional, national and local levels — built upon principles and values, and upon a shared vision and shared goals placing people and the planet at the centre.

In this special period of time, global solidarity is not only a moral imperative, it is in everyone’s interests. Let us focus and work all together towards a sustainable development. (Source: UN)
