Perspectives from Europe and Central Asia on the Post-2015 Development Agenda

Hosted by the Ministry of Development of Turkey and organized in partnership with the United Nations Development Group and the Regional Coordination Mechanism this high-level event provides a timely opportunity to identify regional priorities for the post-2015 UN development agenda and discuss how these priorities can become part of a coherent global framework.

In a series of thematic panel discussions representatives from governments, international organizations, civil society, the private sector, academia and media will review regional experiences and lessons learned from the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), spearhead ways to deepen regional cooperation, and review proposals for measurement of sustainable development in the context of the post-2015 development agenda.

The meeting will conclude with an open forum that will identify regional priorities for the post-2015 agenda and formulate the regional contributions to the global debate.

Wolfgang Lutz was invited to give a keynote at the panel on Population Dynamics and Migration.

The Regional Consultation on the Post-2015 Development Agenda entitled “Inclusive and Sustainable Development: Perspectives from Europe and Central Asia on the Post-2015 Development Agenda” will be held on 7 and 8 November 2013 in Istanbul, Turkey.
