Opening remarks by H.E. António Guterres (United Nations Secretary-General) at the High-level Dialogue on Financing for Development - General Assembly, 74th session.
The High-level Dialogue will provide high-level political leadership and guidance on the implementation of the Addis Agenda, identify progress and emerging challenges and mobilize further action to accelerate implementation.
The Addis Ababa Action Agenda, the United Nations framework for mobilizing resources for implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals, established a follow-up process to review progress on sustainable financing. The ECOSOC Forum on Financing for Development brings together governments, civil society, and businesses yearly to examine past challenges and propose future actions to align and mobilize resources for the SDGs.
Additionally, the Addis Agenda mandates that the High-level Dialogue on Financing for Development of the General Assembly will be held back-to-back with the High-level Political Forum at the Summit level every four years. The 2019 High-level Dialogue will be the first convened since the adoption of the Addis Agenda and will take place on 26 September 2019, during the UN high-level week of action for people and planet.
