| Description: |
As envisaged in Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 17, partnerships are a fundamental enabler of the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The concept of partnerships is comprehensive, encompassing not only finance, information and communications technology (ICT), and capacity building, but also international trade and data monitoring. This profile for SDG 17- strengthening the means of implementation and revitalizing the global partnership for sustainable development- briefly assesses the status of partnerships and cooperation in Asia and the Pacific and examines how they can be furthered, nurtured, and made more inclusive so that no one is left behind and so they become a transformational enabler of the 2030 Agenda. The profile is organised into four sections. Section II presents the status of partnerships and cooperation as well as other Targets and indicators of SDG 17. It provides a basis for outlining the areas where good progress has been made and those that require further attention. The section is complemented by analysis of the integration of human rights and gender considerations. Section III offers a brief account of some promising interventions in the region. The profile ends with a proposal of priority actions necessary to achieve the Goal in Section IV. These actions range from increasing resources, building capabilities, and furthering trade, to protecting human rights, fostering women's participation, and enhancing the capacity of developing countries in the areas of disaggregated data collection and analysis. |
