New website shares tools to strengthen sustainable development capacities
“Upon the adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development last September, the demand for the use of modelling tools to support national governments to adapt their national plans or policies to the sustainable development goals has increased,” said Lenni Montiel, UN DESA’s Assistant Secretary-General for Economic Development. “With this in mind, we are launching today the website Modelling Tools for Sustainable Development Policies,” he said, presenting the new platform at a workshop at UN headquarters in New York.
