The Chair of Southern Voice, Dr Debapriya Bhattacharya, has been invited by the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA)…
Member of the Southern Voice network, Mr Ali Shahbaz, Sustainable Development Policy Institute – Pakistan, was selected by the President of the UN General Assembly to serve as a panelist in the discussion on “Galvanizing support of regional and subregional organizations for the implementation of a transformative post-2015 development agenda” in the high-level thematic debate on Strengthening Cooperation between the UN & Regional & Sub-regional Organizations. The debate took place on 4 May 2015 at United Nations Headquarters in New York.
Shahbaz, who is the Youth Ambassador of Sustainable Development Policy Institute (SDPI) – Pakistan, stressed that the Post-2015 agenda is more of a mass consciousness rather than a development framework, and that it would involve the participation of all stakeholder groups to ensure success.
