Building on the impact of last year’s SDG Digital, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) are gearing up for SDG Digital to take place on 20-21 September in New York. SDG Digital is a cornerstone of our ongoing efforts to leverage digital innovation for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), set within the broader context of this year’s UN General Assembly, the Summit of the Future and its Action Days.
SDG Digital will exemplify how digital technologies can lay the groundwork for a more sustainable, inclusive, and responsible future. By convening leaders from government, civil society, the private sector, youth, and academia, SDG Digital will propel participants forward into the future, encouraging exploration of the trends, risks, and opportunities presented by digital and emerging technologies on our journey forward.
