The 4th Forum, promoted by the Government of Cabo Verde in collaboration with the Forum’s organizing partners, advanced the emerging global dialogue to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as enshrined in the 2030 Agenda, through a new development paradigm that is more people-centered and place-based.
