Please see below an overview of transport events at the 2018's High-level Political Forum (HLPF). At this year's HLPF the main theme is “Transformation towards sustainable and resilient societies” and the forum will review Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), SDG 15 (Life on Land) and SDG 17 (Partnership for the Goals).

During the Asia-Pacific Climate Week (APCD) 2018 in Singapore from 10 to 13 July, SLoCaT will organize in cooperation with CDP, CCAC, ICC, UITP and UNEP the Marrakech Partnership on Global Climate Action event on urban mobility. The title of the session is:

“Transport in cities – Parties and Non party stakeholders working together to deliver low carbon urban mobility”

Safe and sustainable mobility are integral to achieving the theme of the 2018 HLPF, ‘Transformation towards sustainable and resilient societies.’ As populations and motorization increase, it is the poorest who bear the greatest burden of unsafe roads. The health and life chances of millions are held back by inequitable access to mobility.
