SUMMARY:Webinar on VNR:Integrating the perspective of communities discriminated on work and descent in the voluntary national reviews
DESCRIPTION:For the last few years\, the Global Forum of Communities Discriminated on Work and Decent as part of the UN Major Groups and Other Stakeholders\, has been engaging in the National Voluntary Reviews (VNRs)\, presenting the viewpoint of our communities across the world (i.e.\, Roma\, Haratins\, Buraku\, Dalits\, Quilombola\, etc.). This year we would like to support those civil society representatives and other stakeholders interested in getting involved into their national VNRs\, by providing you the in-house knowledge and resources (i.e.\, training) on how to best engage in such advocacy activities from the perspective of communities discriminated on work and descent! \nMore about the VNRs \nAs part of its follow-up and review mechanisms\, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development encourages member States to conduct regular and inclusive reviews of progress at the national and sub-national levels. The Voluntary National Reviews (VNRs) aim to facilitate the sharing of experiences\, including successes\, challenges and lessons learned\, with a view to accelerating the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. \nFollowing states have expressed interest to carry out voluntary national reviews (VNRs) of their implementation of the 2030 Agenda at the 2024 HLPF: Argentina\, Armenia\, Austria\, Azerbaijan\, Belize\, Brazil\, Chad\, Colombia\, Congo (Republic of the)\, Costa Rica\, Ecuador\, Egypt\, Equatorial Guinea\, Eritrea\, Estonia\, Georgia\, Guinea\, Guinea Bissau\, Honduras\, Iran (Islamic Republic of)\, Kenya\, Lao People’s Democratic Republic\, Libya\, Mauritania\, Mauritius\, Mexico\, Micronesia (Federated States of)\, Namibia\, Nepal\, Oman\, Palau\, Peru\, Samoa\, Sierra Leone\, Solomon Islands\, South Africa\, South Sudan\, Spain\, Syrian Arab Republic\, Uganda\, Vanuatu\, Yemen\, Zimbabwe. \nMGoS responses during the VNR  \nThe Major Groups and Other Stakeholders provide the space for stakeholder engagement around the High Level Political Forum (HLPF). Stakeholders can also engage by: providing inputs to and reviewing drafts of VNRs of their respective countries; representing their constituents as part of government delegations; and participating in the presentation of the VNR to the HLPF. The MGoS launched a call for expression of interest from stakeholders from VNR countries in the preparation of statements for the upcoming HLPF. \nThe webinar Integrating the perspective of communities discriminated on work and descent in the voluntary national reviews \nAcross the globe\, communities discriminated on work and descent (CDWD) have been left from national sustainable development strategies and action plans. Ensuring “No one is left behind” in the developmental planning and implementation of the SDGs is one of the key priorities of the Global Forum of Communities Discriminated on Work and Decent. In this webinar we will touch upon the following: \n\nHow can we integrate a CDWD perspective in the VNR process and statement?\nHow can we prepare for the VNR/HLPF? \n\nApproaching the government under review and engage in formal consultations\nEncourage governments to include independent contributions in its VNR report and find ways to review the draft VNR report\nNational advocacy campaigns\nIn person meetings with VNR countries \nFactsheets \nThematic reports and shadow reports \n\n\nWhat after the VNR? Follow-up and continuous engagement \n\nMeet with other non-governmental stakeholders to reflect on the VNR process and discuss next steps to influence implementation and follow-up and review\nUrge governments to address the main findings of the VNR and to follow through on any commitments it made during the VNR process\n\n\n\nThe webinar will take place online. \n Please register here :https://theinclusivityproject-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAsc-qgrzgiG9L-Rk14VMyiyErIjtfG6WTv  \nInterpretation will be in  French\, Spanish and Portuguese will be provided. \nRead more about the 2024 VNRs here: MGoS\, DESA Flag Opportunities for Stakeholder Participation in 2024 HLPF | News | SDG Knowledge Hub | IISD
