SDSN’s January Highlights

Dear SDSN Community,

Welcome to the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network’s (SDSN) January Newsletter!

Last year marked the warmest year on record, exceeding the 1.5°C global warming limit and raising alarm across the globe. With five years left to achieve the SDGs, progress is more urgent than ever and the SDSN hit the ground running in January. In Malaysia, we hosted the ASEAN Workshop on Sustainable Development at Sunway University, exploring Southeast Asia’s SDG progress and obstacles.

In Brussels, Belgium, the SDSN launched the Europe Sustainable Development Report 2025, as well as an accompanying study on SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and the future of agri-food systems in the region, during a high-level event with the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC), featuring interventions by the European Commission, member states and civil society. The report reveals that SDG progress in the EU has largely stalled since 2020, and highlights persistent social, environmental, and biodiversity challenges in the EU, including sustainable agri-food systems. In a rapidly evolving geopolitical context, it also underlines the importance for the EU to strengthen its SDG/Green Deal Diplomacy with multiple global partners and contribute to an ambitious reform of the Global Financial Architecture, a few months before the 4th International Conference on Financing for Development which will take place in the EU in Seville, Spain.

Read on for more SDSN updates, upcoming events, and opportunities.

Sincerely,

The SDSN Secretariat

The final day of COP 29

UN Climate Change Conference Baku

After much suspense, parties eventually set a new finance goal. They also operationalized the market-based cooperative approaches for implementing the Paris Agreement and extended the work programme on gender, but failed to reach agreement on just transition and taking forward the outcomes of the Global Stocktake.
