The SDG 16+ Consultations
Driven by a coalition of SDG 16 global initiatives
Technical consultations
As part of this campaign leading up to HLPF 2019, the UNDP, in partnership with the coalition of SDG 16+ global initiatives, supported a series of technical consultation on SDG 16+. This was both online and in-person, aiming to highlight progress on monitoring, reporting and implementation of SDG 16+, and distill key messages for the thematic review of SDG 16.

These technical consultations:
- Highlighted key trends and achievements on SDG 16+
- Provided case studies illustrating SDG 16+ in action

SDG 16+ Online Consultations
To enable contributions from a wide range of stakeholders, a series of online consultations were held on the SDG 16 Hub, providing an opportunity to define key messages, highlight key stories and good practices, and share case studies of what has worked best in the implementation of SDG 16+.
These inputs shaped the technical consultations and fed into the SDG 16+ Report and UN DESA Expert Group Meeting.
