Fourth SIDS National Focal Points Meeting

среда, 30 August 2023 - 9:00am to 3:00pm

Background

UN-OHRLLS will convene the fourth (in-person) SIDS National Focal Points (NFP) meeting on 30 August 2023 in Praia, Cabo Verde. The SIDS National Focal Points Network was established by the Office of the High Representative for the Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States (OHRLLS) to strengthen coherence and coordination of SIDS-related sustainable development issues at the national, regional, and global levels.

The NFP meeting precedes the Inter-Regional Preparatory Meeting for the 4th SIDS Conference (SIDS4) from 30 August – 1 September 2023. The SIDS4 will play a critical role in catalyzing global action, fostering a new generation of partnerships, and mobilizing resources to tackle the multi-dimensional vulnerabilities of SIDS.

As a new programme of action for SIDS carries forth progress from the SAMOA Pathway into the next decade, NFPs are uniquely placed to support localizing a new set of development priorities for SIDS.

The upcoming NFP meeting in Cabo Verde will:

  1. Synthesize national and regional priorities and lessons learned from across the three SIDS regions - based on outcomes of the three regional preparatory meetings.
  2. Address steps to strengthen the Network including identifying capacity building needs of NFPs;
  3. Outline specific recommendations on NFP support for the implementation of the next programme of action for SIDS.
