Conclusion of the HLS
* The programme reflects General Assembly resolutions 75/290 A and B; 67/290; 70/299; and the 2030 Agenda. It is based on assumption that it will be an in-person meeting. In case the circumstances will warrant a hybrid meeting, the
hours will need to be reduced, which will affect the time allocated to VNR presentations and other sessions.
**The sessions will look at synergies and trade-offs among these SDGs and across all the SDGs. SDG 17 will be discussed in all SDG sessions.
