The 2016 Arab Forum on Sustainable Development took place in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan from 29 to 30 May 2016, in cooperation with the members of Regional Coordination Mechanism (RCM) and the League of Arab States, acting upon General Assembly resolution 70/1 and its Executive Committee’s call to provide support to its Member States in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

It served as a participatory consultative dialogue engaging around 80 participants coming from Government officials, civil society actors, academics and international organizations on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. The 2016 Arab Forum was organized into four components: 

  1. Understanding the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. 
  2. Moving from Commitment to Action at National Level.
  3. Achieving the SDGs through Addressing Regional Challenges and Priorities. 
  4. The Way Forward – Ensuring that No One is Left Behind.
