The Partnership for Action on Green economy (PAGE) released today its annual report for 2022 “Partnering for a Common Purpose”, marking great milestones, welcoming new partner countries, and celebrating the success of ten years of joint action towards green economic transformation.
On this occasion, the PAGE secretariat held a PAGE Global Family Gathering to present officially the 2022 Annual Report, and underscore with its many stakeholders the importance of collective cooperation in building a sustainable and inclusive future.
“We cannot do it alone, and are enriching the capacity of the whole of the UN system for a green and inclusive economic transformation, in partnership with DCO. A green economic and finance will require joint efforts by the whole of government, all economic sectors and whole of UN as we need to match the action with the ambitions to reverse the trends for global warming, biodiversity loss and unprecedented levels of pollution.” said Asad Naqvi, head of PAGE secretariat, who hosted the event.
As PAGE marks its 10th anniversary, its mission to inspire inform and enable partner countries to put sustainability at the heart of policy-making is critical. Just after overcoming COVID-19 slowdowns, national economies faced renewed shocks to supply chains and food and energy systems in 2022. The call for building resilient, green, and inclusive economies is more urgent than ever, shows the report.
The online event brought together 90 stakeholders from all over the world to discuss PAGE achievements and reflect on PAGE work. Representatives from partner countries, from the United Nations, funding partners and PAGE collaborators joined the event and exchanged lessons learned, ideas, achievements and projects to advance the green economy internationally.
