Dear Hon. Member of Parliament,
We are pleased to invite you to the first event of our
Parliamentary Leadership for the 2030 Agenda
Webinar Series,
titled
COVID-19 response: Leaving No One Behind.
The webinars are meant to serve as
a forum for peer-to-peer learning, mutual inspiration and exchange of best practices that can galvanize
more political action on SDGs.
The first webinar will be a discussion-focused event centered on policies and practices that can be
implemented to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose will be to inform decision making with
the necessary scientific evidence to address the immediate challenges faced by public health systems
within a sustainable and inclusive recovery framework. In this session, we will be joined by world-
leading experts who will provide their presentations, which will be then followed by discussion with and
between members of parliament over the possible solutions that can enable a sustainable and inclusive
COVID-19 response. Kindly see the attached concept note and agenda for further details.
Please confirm your participation by
registering here.
Connection details will be sent to confirmed
participants a couple days in advance of the event.
We look forward to having you join us along with parliamentarians from all regions of the world and
take part in this conversation.
With our warm regards and gratitude,
Gabriela Cuevas Barron, Honorary President, Inter-Parliamentary Union
Jeffrey Sachs, President, Sustainable Development Solutions Network
Kirsten Brosbøl, Founder, Parliamentarians for the Global Goals
