A key area of focus will be defining and establishing a set of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that can bring developed and developing nations into a new era of cooperative action. UN Secretary-General Ban ki-Moon recently announced the Sustainable Development Solutions Network — a new independent global network of research centres, universities and technical institutions — to provide ideas and solutions. This will support a High-Level Panel, which will report next year on the post-2015 development agenda. DS UN Environment Document Repository RD Sep 23, 2026
