FN:s havskonferens i New York

Under sidoeventet Swedish Initiative for Agenda 2030, som Jernkontoret arrangerade tillsammans med Svenskt Näringsliv och Zero Vision Tool den 6 juni, lyftes under en intensiv frågestund exempel på hur industrin arbetar för att nå flera av FN:s globala mål, framför allt det fjortonde målet som handlar om hav och marina resurser­­.

Syftet med sidoeventet var att betona branschens vilja och förmåga att agera motor i den förändringsprocess som behövs i omvandlingen till en hållbar värld där de sjutton globala målen är uppfyllda.

Swedish Initiative for Agenda 2030 ägde rum tisdagen den 6 juni kl. 11.00-12.30 lokal tid i FN:s högkvarter, konferensrum 12.
