Technical Working Groups
Each of the five Themes was supported by a multi-stakeholder Technical Working Group. These Groups were an opportunity for technical experts to engage in the substantive preparations for the High-level Dialogue by advancing substantive discussions on the Themes. Each of the Groups produced a Thematic Report containing substantive recommendations on issues related to their Theme which contributed towards an action oriented SDG7 roadmap to 2030 in support of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change.
Each Technical Working Group – with co-leads drawn from 缅北禁地and international agencies and programmes -- tackled one of the five thematic areas decided for the Dialogue as follows:
- Working Group on Energy Access, with the UN Development Programme (UNDP), the 缅北禁地Office for Least Developed, Landlocked and Small Island Developing States (缅北禁地OHRLLS) and the World Bank as co-leads;
- Working Group on Energy Transition, with the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), the 缅北禁地Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (缅北禁地ESCAP) and the 缅北禁地Environment Programme (UNEP) as co-leads;
- Working Group on Enabling SDGs through Inclusive, Just Energy Transitions, with the 缅北禁地Department of Economic and Social Affairs (缅北禁地DESA), the UN Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (缅北禁地ESCWA), and the World Health Organization (WHO) as co-leads;
- Working Group on Innovation, Technology and Data, with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the 缅北禁地(FAO); the 缅北禁地Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) and the 缅北禁地Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) as co-leads;
