The Government of Brazil is organizing, with the support of the United Nations, the Sustainable Development Dialogues, to be held in Riocentro, between June 16 to 19, in the context of the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development -Rio+20.
In the four days prior to the High Level Segment, representatives from civil society, including private sector, NGOs, scientific community, among other major groups, will convene at the same venue of the Rio+20 Conference. They are expected to engage in an open and action-oriented debate on key topics related to sustainable development. There will be no participation of Governments or UN agencies. Three recommendations emanating from each of the Dialogues will be conveyed directly to the Heads of State and Government present at the Summit.
Ten topics will be debated, based on their relevance to the furthering of sustainable development. At the bottom of this page you can see the list of themes, the schedule and the confirmed panelists. The debates will be broadcast live through the UN website.
Nine high-profile events over four days, organized by the Government of Brazil, will engage civil society and leading experts to seek innovative solutions on global sustainability issues.
