Parliaments have a critical role to play in the implementation, follow-up and review of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, Alicia Bárcena, Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), underscored today during a virtual presentation made before the Parliament of Trinidad and Tobago.
“You are the ones who enact laws that support fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals, adopt budgets, monitor accountability, promote the integration of distinct citizen perspectives, and debate on how the SDGs can be meaningfully adapted at national and sub-national levels,” she explained.
Bárcena participated this Monday, April 26, in the first of a series of four SDG Masterclass seminars organized by the Office of the United Nations Resident Coordinator for Trinidad and Tobago, Suriname, Aruba, Curaçao and St. Maarten, Marina Walter, at the request of the Parliament of Trinidad and Tobago.
