RT @alexanderdecroo: Climate action has entered the implementation era. And @UNDP is ready to help deliver. Today, I joined @turkiyecop31…

Peace, justice, and strong institutions are the foundation for all #SDGs. The latest #SDG16 report shows that while progress has been made, too many people still face violence, exclusion, and barriers to justice. Read the new report: sdg16progress.org #UNGA

Tourism depends on clean beaches, healthy reefs and attractive destinations. Plastic pollution puts all three at risk. But tourism can also drive the solution. Our new report series shows how: ow.ly/ksrZ50ZRjg7 #BeatPlasticPollution

Today at the #UNGA, leaders adopt a declaration naming topographic and bathymetric data as a foundation for acting on sea level rise. In the Pacific, most of that data does not yet exist: go.undp.org/NgA @UNDP_Pacific @UNDPasiapac @UNDP @spc_cps @yusuketaishi @KribBKK

Climate action works best when it’s inclusive, equitable & locally driven. In 100+ countries, the @UN's #ClimatePromise, coordinated by UNDP, is helping turn pledges into action building stronger communities, sustainable economies & a healthier 🌍. go.undp.org/climatepromisefo… #UNGA

Green finance is essential to translate climate ambition into action. With thanks to #Sweden 🇸🇪, @UNDP's GIF4LAC initiative is helping countries unlock investments and advance green finance as a key tool for resilient and sustainable development: go.undp.org/NhB

As world leaders gather at #UNGA81 in New York today to discuss #ClimateAction, one question is increasingly urgent: how do we finance the transition? UN ASG & @UNDP Regional Director @Ivana_Zivkovic_ on turning climate ambition into investment. 🔗 go.undp.org/NhJ
