ALLIANCE GROUP
2 - 3 November 2015 ECOSOC Retreat 2 Discussion Paper:-
Achieving AAAA, SDG and COP21 Outcome Document Vision and Words with
Action Agenda by 2030 – Central Role for ECOSOC
World Leaders endorsed SDG on 25 September 2015
that is Vision and Words without Action. Spirited effort is ongoing at Global
level to find answer to SDG How questions – a necessary condition for
converting the SDGs into Vision and Words with Action. This effort is at least
one year behind. If correct answer to SDG How question is not found on time and
in ways that make up for lost time, the probability is high that the Global
Goals will not be achieved by 2030 Target date. Allowed to occur in reality,
the ultimate consequences could be catastrophic for all stakeholders in our
fragile Planet.
The Argument
If Bright Prospect of Success achieving SDGs by
2030 Target date is to be reality and to deliver sustainable solutions to real
and complex World Hunger, Poverty, Migration, Terrorism, Security, Corruption
etc problems on the ground in our World as is and not as any Stakeholder – no
matter how powerful wish it to be; Now is a time for the ECOSOC Members to
pause and reflect on correct answer to the following specific questions:-
1.
How can the Methods
of Work of the ECOSOC in each of the 193 Member States be effectively Aligned
and Harmonized with the objectives of AAAA, SDG, COP21 Outcome Document,
together with the Agendas of Nine Major Groups and a Tenth Consultants and
Advisers Major Group, UNGA, HLPF, Six existing GA Committees and Six proposed
GA Committees to eliminate overlap and duplication?
2.
How should the
Agendas of ECOSOC in each of the 193 Member States be effectively Aligned and Harmonized
with the objectives of AAAA, SDG, COP21 Outcome Document, together with the
Agendas of Nine Major Groups and a Tenth Consultants and Advisers Major Group, UNGA,
HLPF, Six existing GA Committees and Six proposed GA Committees look like in
the coming years 2016 – 2030?
These answers need to be found and in ways that are aligned
and harmonized to answers to questions raised by His Excellency, Mr Logjar at
the 9 October 2015 meeting to be fully addressed at the 22 October 2015
Consultation. That is:-
High Priority Aims and Objectives of
Key Task of GA Second Committee on Continuously Improving its Working Methods
and Rationalization of its Agenda:-
1.
Revitalization of the work of the GA
which calls for proposals for biennialization, triennializaton, clustering and
elimination of items on the Agenda of the GA.
2.
Revitalization of the work of the GA Second
Committee which calls for proposals on the rationalisation of the General
Debate and Introduction of Agenda Item Debates.
3.
Contribute to the fulfilment of GA
mandates, particularly that contained in resolution 68/1, which provided that
the ECOSOC and the GA especially its Second and Third Committees, should
consider and take steps towards the rationalization of their Agendas by
eliminating duplication and overlap, and promoting complimentarity in the
consideration and negotiation of similar or related issues.
4.
Address the provisions of resolution
69/321, as the main outcome of the Ad-Hoc Working Group on the Revitalization
of the work of the GA where each Main Committee is requested to discuss its
working methods at the beginning and end of every session.
5.
Ensure that the future work of the GA
Second Committee is fully aligned with the Integrated Vision of the 2030 Agenda
for Sustainable Development and the AAAA
Key Questions that need to be
answered in Design and Delivery of above Key Task:-
1.
As currently constituted, can the
Agenda of this Committee effectively support the promotion and integration of
the three dimensions of sustainable development?
2.
Could sustainable development become
an overarching framework for the Agenda of the Committee? What are the options
for rearranging the Agenda as a whole to reflect this approach?
3.
What implications, if any, would this
approach have for the outcomes and resolutions adopted by the Committee?
4.
Do the items in our Agenda adequately
cover the main aspects of the 2030 Agenda?
5.
What are the gaps to be filled,
bearing in mind also the work and Agenda of the Third Committee? How should the
Second Committee fulfil its main mandates vis-a-vis other main Bodies and
Platforms, such as the Third Committee, ECOSOC and HLPF?
Outcome UNSDS
2015, GA Second Committee 22 and 23 October Consultations
The intention of UNSDS 2015 was to help find
answer to SDG How questions. It ended up finding answer to SDG What and Why
questions. It avoided or evaded answer to SDG How questions. The GA Second
Committee 22 October 2015 Consultation with NGOs was intended to help find
answer to specific How questions. It did not answer any How question but came
up with answer to several What and Why questions. The GA Second Committee 23
October 2015 Consultation with the UN 5 Regional Commissions was also intended
to help find answer to specific How questions. It did not answer any How
question but came up with answer to What and Why questions. The ECOSOC Retreat
2 needs to be piloted to avoid these process failures. This Discussion Paper
adopted to guide proceedings can help the ECOSOC Retreat 2 achieve success in
the answer to How questions where past effort had failed.
New
Development Architecture
The AAAA focus is on the Finance for Development
Component of SDG, while the COP21 Outcome Document will focus on the
Environmental Sustainability Component of SDG. The current AAAA and SDG answer
What and Why questions without answering How questions and so despite UN
Sustainable Development Summit September 2015, the AAAA and SDG remain Vision
and Words without Action.
To convert to AAAA and SDG Vision and Words with
Action, AAAA and SDG How questions – How to achieve AAAA and SDG Ambition by
Target Date in all 193 Member States, Who does what and Who Pays for What, How
will Sanctions be enforced etc need to be answered and without delay. The
failures in AAAA and SDG Processes need to be corrected in COP21 Process
otherwise the COP21 Outcome Document will also be Vision and Words without
Action – thus repeating past Error.
The 17 SDGs are in reality 2 Major Goals –
Poverty Elimination and Environmental Sustainability and 17 Minor Goals that
need to be expanded to 21 to highlight Corruption, Conflict, Religion and Data
issues that are currently hidden in the 17 Global Goals. This point was once
again underlined by outcome of the IAEG-SDG Thailand 26 – 28 October 2015.
To convert the 21 Minor Goals into Policy, Program,
Project Interventions, 3PIs and 3PI Training as One in specific context Village
to Global in each of the 193 Member States Demand New Development Architecture
effectively linking each Community in each Local Government in each of the 193
Member States with UN Headquarters New York and with specific responsibility
for improving Coordination, Collaboration and Cooperation between SDG Office;
AAAA Office; EfS (Environment for Sustainability) Office; ECOSOC Office; Master
Multi-stakeholder Platform, MSP; MSP Poverty Elimination Implementation, MSP
Poverty Elimination Evaluation, MSP Environmental Sustainability
Implementation, MSP Environmental Sustainability Evaluation. Each MSP will
speak 6 UN Languages.
If ECOSOC is to deliver its quota in the work towards
finding answer to AAAA, SDG, COP21 Outcome Document, Agenda 21 etc How
questions set out in the Argument above need to be answered and as soon as
possible.
Fighting Hunger
and Poverty
1.
The overarching purpose of AAAA, SDG and
COP21 Outcome Document (when it is ready in December 2015) is to help Fight and
Win War on Poverty at Global level as well as at National level in each of the
193 Member States. Do UN, WBG, IMF, Governments in 193 Member States and
Partners Village to Global really know why poverty exists? Do they know the
contribution of weak and ineffective leaders that do not have enough incentive
or urgency to implement change or who face opposition that advocates for
themselves, their tribe, their religion, etc towards making the complex Hunger
and Poverty even worse?
It is clear that those leaders failing
their people in this way are either elites themselves or beholden to them and
their desire to stay elite. Does anyone think the success stories of South
Korea, Singapore, Chile, Mauritius were achieved because of the contribution of
some strategy guru’s and tech leaders who told everyone else they are asking
the wrong question? It may be a good idea to have an anthropologist involved
because the issue is not who has the best idea or the smartest approach or
clearly the most money to throw at the problem. The issue is about deep seeded
socio-economic-political-cultural-religious problems exacerbated by scarce
resources and constant threats to livelihoods. The issue is also lying with
Data as well as lack of Credible Data Systems.
The current AAAA and SDG that is Vision
and Words without Action does not speak to these issues and that is why How
questions continue to be avoided or evaded and also why WBG has a Study Report
that say SSA will not meet SDG by 2030 yet WBG joins its Voice to call on World
Leaders to work towards achieving SDG by Target 2030 date. What a
contradiction. This WBG Methodology that is Fail at birth is the same
Methodology being used by UN, IMF, Governments in 193 Member States, so how can
the SDG, AAAA and COP21 Outcome Document Vision Ambition be achieved on due
date or at all?
Our Study finding is that a major problem with the development industry
is the surplus of smart people with ego’s who think they have the best
solutions and convince developing country leaders that their pedigree better
enables them to proscribe policy solutions.
The new architecture of development is going to have to come from the
inside out, localized solutions that are first, politically and socially
palatable and have buy in from those that promote them. The outside in approach
is not working. The ordinary people know why poverty exists but too often are
unable to influence any positive change in their own lives without empowerment.
Internal Consultants and External Consultants, National and Global with minimum
certain levels of Competences – Hard Competences: Learning and Skills and Soft
Competences: Character, Courage and Mindset have to be identified, promoted and
protected to support Village to Global Stakeholders in the deployment of One
Worldwide Approach, Business Unusual Approach, Whole of Government, Bank,
Institution, Society, Country Approach to Whole of Government, Bank,
Institution, Society, Country Problems etc Jointly using Correct Diagnosis,
Prescription, Surgery and Recovery Management Methodology.
The time is now for Executives in NGOs’, UN, WBG, IMF and Senior
Officials of Governments in 193 Member States to recognize that sustainable
solutions to the national / global poverty problem lie within asking “why does
poverty exist?” Remember, the development industry basically can provide
resource that does not exist to enable poverty elimination, zero hunger,
disease eradication, increased amounts of children vaccinated and educated even
provide the best policy recommendations so countries can flourish. But its the
“last mile” that depends on the actions of the people being served by the
Development Industry working Jointly with relevant Stakeholders in their
specific context to effectively Demand for change that these Resources –
Influence, Science, Technology, Innovation, Arts, Manpower, Spiritual, Land and
Water can be unlocked and deployed to achieve increasing convergence between
AAAA, SDG and COP21 Outcome Document Vision Intention and Reality in the
specific Community in each Local Government in each of the 193 Member States.
1.
Multi
Stakeholder Platforms, MSPs: Policy Coherence for Sustainable Development
Many analysts have submitted the proof that the “Global
Goals” is the right approach to World Sustainable Development will be in its
implementation. They have asked “Will the policy makers and other
powerful actors take an integrated,
coherent approach across the SDGs? Or will they – as has been argued
happened for the MDGs – implement them
as if they are separate problems in separate boxes requiring different sets of
actions?”
The view of the analysts is that tremendous possibility of
taking an integrated approach, to
the SDGs suggests that the most important aspect of the SDGs is a little phrase
hidden away in Goal 17 on Strengthening Means of Implementation. It is Target
17.14: “Enhance policy coherence for
sustainable development.” In other words: accept the reality that everything is connected with everything else
and figure out how to solve problems from there. Far better that than try
to fix problems, on their own and then wonder why, they are so hard to fix. The
implication is that:-
1.
Get Target 17.14
Right; Get Goal 17 Right and Get Goal 17 Right, Get all 17 (21) Goals in the
SDGs Right.
2.
The implementation
as well as the Monitoring and Evaluation of the Implementation of each AAAA and
SDG Action Agenda Item Demand Policy Coherence for Sustainable Development at
several Multi Stakeholder Platforms levels
3.
The Scope of
Policy Coherence, Coordination, Collaboration and Cooperation for Sustainable
Development, P4CSD Agenda has expanded in many ways and concerns all 193 Member
States regardless of their level of National Development
4.
New P4CSD
Principles, Instruments / Tools corresponding to each Principle, Practices and
Database within One Worldwide Approach to Sustainable Development are needed to
effectively take into account today’s more complex Policy, program, Project
Interventions Inter-linkages, interconnectivity and interdependence from
Village to Global levels in each of the 193 Member States
5.
The Application of
P4CSD should Integrate Poverty Elimination, Environmental Sustainability,
Development Resources (Influence, Science, Technology, Innovation, Art,
Funding, Manpower, Spiritual, Land and Water) and Development Communication in
the work towards achieving AAAA and SDG Vision and Words with Action Agenda in
each Community in each Local Government in each of the 193 Member States
applicable to the specific location context.
6.
The Application of
P4CSD should bring Measuring Progress, Pinpointing Gaps and Filling all
identified Gaps on time to the forefront in the National and International
Development Agenda of each Government in each of the 193 Member States
7.
The Application of
P4CSD should Strengthen the Capacity of each Government in each of the 193
Member States to more effectively address real and complex Sub-national,
National, Sub-regional, Regional and Global Development Cooperation Challenges
they are grappling with in ways that meaningfully promote and protect the
Common Interest and Common Future of Citizens in all 193 Member States.
Acid Test of Credibility
The implication of holding UNSDS 2015 after adoption of
SDG, is that what World Leaders have adopted is SDG that is Vision and Words
without Action and what UNSDS 2015 seek to achieve is ways and means of
converting current AAAA and SDG into new AAAA and SDG that is Vision and Words
with Action. Unless this conversion is achieved, it will be an uphill task for
World Leaders to deliver on their promise to achieve SDG by 2030.
The acid test of credibility of SDG is how it delivers:-
1.
Better Domestic and International Trade in each of 193 Member
States.
2.
Better Financing – Equity, Loan and Grant for all particularly
the Poor
3.
Better War on Corruption and Terrorism and
4.
Better Environmental Sustainability.
New Thinking, New Ideas, New Ways
of Doing Things etc
The only way World Leaders can deliver on their promise
during the adoption of SDG is to improve Coordination, Collaboration,
Cooperation, Solidarity and Accountability in the design and delivery of mutual
support mechanism that help each of the 193 Member States to pass this acid
test of credibility of the SDGs.
To achieve this, the 193 Member States jointly and
severally must demonstrate and be seen to demonstrate:-
1.
Willingness to accept new ideas, new thinking, new ways of doing
things
2.
Willingness to establish new coordination, new collaboration,
new cooperation, new solidarity, new accountability and new partnership
3.
Readiness to accept past flaws, past failures, past drawbacks,
past shortcomings and past hindrances
4.
Readiness to build bridge between lessons learning and lessons
forgetting, create learning organization and create learning society
5.
Readiness to create Demand for Planning – Research, Planning,
Data as basis for creating Supply for Planning – Research, Planning, Data
6.
Readiness to create Demand for Implementation as basis for
creating supply for Implementation
7.
Readiness to create Demand for Evaluation – Monitoring,
Evaluation, Assessment as basis for creating Supply for Evaluation –
Monitoring, Evaluation, Assessment
8.
Readiness to create Demand for Accountability – Transparency,
Accountability, Citizen / Stakeholder Participation as basis for creating
Supply for Accountability – Transparency, Accountability, Citizen / Stakeholder
Participation
9.
Readiness to create Demand for Learning – Learning and Result as
basis for creating Supply for Learning – Learning and Result
10. Readiness to accept One Nationwide
/ Region wide / Worldwide 3PCM – Policy, Program, Project Cycle Management
Approach and Methodology to Sustainable Benefits focused National and
International Development Cooperation Policy, Program, Project Intervention,
3PI and 3PI Training as One in each Action Agenda Item in each of the 17 SDGs
applicable to specific context – Village to Global in each of the 193 Member
States
We observe with regret that although AAAA and SDG call
for innovative approaches, new partnerships, rule of law, accountable
governance, comprehensive and effective accountability as well as follow up and
review / monitoring and evaluation mechanism – that is Business Unusual, it is
still Business as Usual. Unless World Leaders and Global Citizens Immediately
Operationalize in Practice the Spirit and Letters of revised AAAA and revised
SDG, the probability is high that errors in AAAA and SDG will be repeated in
COP21 Outcome Document. Allowed to occur, the ultimate consequence is likely to
be catastrophic.
AAAA and SDG Village to Global
Capacity Building
The above fundamental issues of Willingness and
Readiness need to be complemented by fundamental issues of Ability – Capacity
Building; Ability – Resources and Invitation – Mandate within National and
Global Platform. Resources include:
Influence, Science, Technology, Innovation, Art, Fund, Manpower, Spiritual,
Land and Water. There are more than enough Resources to achieve all 17 SDGs in each of
the 193 Member States if World Leaders can get Capacity Building Right in each
of the 193 Member States.
Capacity Building should be on three levels:-
1.
Individual – Hard Competences: Learning and
Skills and Soft Competences: Character, Courage and Mindset
2.
Institution / Government – Processes, Procedures, Systems,
Operations that empower Individuals to operationalize in practice Competences
they acquire through formal and informal education and training to help achieve
increasing convergence between Institution / Government Vision, Mission and
Mandate Intention and Reality.
3.
Society – Political and Cultural; Economic and Financial;
Social and Environmental; Peace and Security; Religious and Moral Space that
empower Individuals and Institutions to Thrive in the work towards achieving
Institution / Government Vision, Mission, Mandate Intention and Reality with or
without chaos.
STRENGTHEN
NATIONAL LEVEL CAPACITY ON IMPLEMENTATION OF 2030 SD AGENDA.
We are Greatly Concerned that UNDESA has mandated an Organization -
Gestos with Strength IN HIV AIDS Advocacy to help Train NGOs' in 9 Pilot
Countries Strengthen National level Capacity on Implementation of 2030 SD
Agenda. The Big Questions are How have these 9 Pilot Countries been selected?
If it will take months to carry out the training in just 9 Countries how many
years will it take to scale up the Training to remaining 184 Countries? Can
such unduly prolonged time frame help achieve SDG in each Community in each
Local Government in each of 193 Member States by the 2030 Target date? Is
Competency in HIV AIDS Competency equivalent to Competency in all remaining
areas of Heath Dimension of SDGs' as well as Competency in all remaining
Dimensions of all 17 SDG?
If these Competences are LACKING in the Preferred Consultant, what type
of Strengthening National Level Capacity on Implementation as well as
Evaluation of each Action Agenda Item in each of the 17 SDG is being DELIVERED
by the Preferred Consultant? Is it not CLEAR that the Preferred Consultant can
only Perform in its area of proven Competence - HIV AIDS Advocacy and will
CERTAINLY Fail in all other Dimensions of Advocacy in all remaining Action
Agenda Items in all 17 SDG? Is good HIV AIDS Advocacy the same thing as Good
HIV AIDS Policy, Program, Project Interventions, 3PI and 3PI Training as One
Designed and Delivered to Reduce and Ultimately Eradicate HIV AIDS? Again if
this is not the case, has UNDESA or whichever UN Agency is responsible for
Commissioning Preferred Consultant selected the most Competent Consultant that
has demonstrable track record of delivering Value for Money and Fitness for
Purpose within the entire Scope of the Assignment?
Should above observations not be discussed at the Wednesday 28 October
2015 meeting, 2 – 3 November 2015 ECOSOC Retreat 2 and appropriate Remedial
Recommendations made to concerned UN Agencies and Authorities? Is it helpful
for concerned UN Agencies and Authorities to be searching for AAAA, SDG, COP21,
Agenda 21 etc Sustainable Solutions that have already been presented to them
and to be Ignoring Professionals with Competences and Demonstrable Track Record
to Deliver on specific assignments while selecting Preferred Consultants who
clearly do not have the Competences - Hard Competences Learning and Skills and
Soft Competences - Character, Courage and Mindset to Deliver on the Scope of
the Assignment they have been saddled with?
Working Together To Benefit Together
To help ensure World Leaders deliver on promise to
achieve SDGs’ by 2030, we suggest NGO
Major Group Leaders persuade and if necessary Pressure relevant UN and Non UN
authorities to undertake critical review of this Discussion Paper and other
ISPE / EAG Papers, Policy Briefings and Articles. Should its assessment confirm
that indeed the Papers, Policy Briefings and articles have many good ideas and
pertinent suggestions, which adopted by UNGA, HLPF, ECOSOC, UN Security
Council, 193 Member States Governments and Partners – Village to Global can
help achieve increasing convergence between AAAA and SDG Vision and Words with
Action Intention and Reality in each Community in each Local Government in each
of 193 Member States, we suggest these UN and Non UN authorities consider
taking the following specific action steps:-
1.
Endorse the Papers, Policy Briefings and Articles and request UNDESA
or UNNGLS to circulate the endorsed Papers, Policy Briefings and articles to
all World Leaders, 193 Member States and other AAAA and SDG Stakeholders.
2.
Underline need for Integrated Sustainable Solutions – Political
Solutions, Cultural Solutions, Economic Solutions, Financial Solutions, Social
Solutions, Environment Solutions, Peace Solutions, Security Solutions,
Religious Solutions and Moral Solutions; to Design and Delivery of each Action
Agenda Item in AAAA, SDG, COP21 Outcome Document etc applicable to specific
Village to Global location context.
3.
Urge all World Leaders, 193 member States and other AAAA, SDG,
COP21 Outcome Document etc Stakeholders to recognize that Political Solutions
is Master Key to unlocking remaining 9 Integrated Sustainable Solutions.
4.
Urge UNGA, HLPF, ECOSOC, UN Security Council to each pass resolution calling on each of the
193 Member States to adopt recommendations in the Papers, Policy Briefings and Articles
and go further to establish immediately National Integrated Economic Reform
Program, NIEReP for the implementation and evaluation of domesticated AAAA, SDG
and COP21 Outcome Document etc Vision and Words with Action, aligned with
National Development Plan through National Reform Bureau working with Reform
Implementation Unit in each Ministry, Department and Agency in each of the 193
Member States, whose activities are coordinated by Steering Committee on Reform
and National Council on Reform within complimentary Sub-national, National,
Sub-regional, Regional and Global Master Multi Stakeholder Partnership
Platforms.
If SDG, AAAA, COP21 Outcome Document etc
Vision Ambitions are to be achieved and on schedule date, Village to Global
Stakeholders need to Work Together to Benefit Together.
MOVING FORWARD
Do NGO Major Group Leaders, World Leaders, UNDESA,
EOSG, UNGA, ECOSOC, HLPF and Partners recognize that correct answer to all
AAAA, SDG, COP21 Outcome Document, Agenda 21, FAO Conference on Hunger and
Poverty Action Plan etc How questions lie in the DOING? And that without
immediately:-
1.
Appointing
Reform Adviser and Global Coordinating Consultant on AAAA, SDG, COP21 Outcome
Document, etc Policy Coherence, Coordination, Collaboration and Cooperation for
Sustainable Development, P4CSD to UNGA, ECOSOC and HLPF and Partners
2.
Selecting
One Worldwide Approach
3.
Establishing
Mater Multi Stakeholder Platform, MSP and MSPs for each Action Agenda item
Village to Global, VtG
4.
Establishing
Multidisciplinary Professionals Community of Practice on Poverty Elimination
and Environmental Sustainability as VtG Platform for all relevant existing and
new Disciplines
5.
Addressing
issues of Trust, Silos, Honesty, Thinking, Solidarity, Attitude, Behavior,
Communication etc VtG
6.
Connecting
each Community in each Local Government in each of the 193 Member States to UN
Headquarters New York
7.
Establishing
VtG Mechanism for Correct Diagnosis, Prescription, Surgery and Recovery
Management
8.
Establishing
VtG Policy, Program, Project Interventions, 3PIs and 3PIs Training as One
9.
Establishing
VtG Mechanism for Ownership, Harmony, Alignment, Accountability, Transparency,
Transformation, Leadership, Learning, Results and Participation (Citizens and
Stakeholders), OH2A2T2LRP
10. Establishing VtG Mechanism for Policy
Coherence, Coordination, Collaboration and Cooperation for Sustainable
Development, P4CSD
11. Establishing VtG Mechanism for Master
Collaborative Research Support Program, CRSP for each Action Agenda Item
It will be uphill task achieving increasing
convergence between AAAA, SDG, COP21 Outcome Document, Agenda 21, FAO
Conference on Hunger and Poverty etc Vision Intention and Reality. If these
Visions are not achieved by 2030 Target date, the ultimate consequences for our
Fragile Planet could be catastrophic.
The answer to AAAA, SDG, Agenda 21, COP21 Outcome
Document, Synthesis Report, Data Revolution Report etc How questions is in the
Doing with focus on Action and Accomplishment and not in the Saying with focus
on Talking and Thinking.
Conclusion
Never has our World been so rich. Never
has our World been so poor. The vicious circle of being too poor to be rich and
too rich to be poor must be broken by AAAA and SDG if our World is to be a
happier, safer and healthier place to live, work, play and raise children.
There is more than enough Resources - Influence, Science, technology,
Innovation, Fund, Manpower and Spiritual to achieve increasing convergence
between AAAA (revised) and SDG Vision Intention and Reality, if there is shift
from working HARDER to working SMARTer; shift from Disordered Change to Ordered
Change. Can this viscous circle be broken without the evolution of a Corruption
Free Society?
Sustainable Solutions to Poverty, Hunger,
Climate Change, Environmental Degradation and related problems including
Corruption and Terrorism on the ground in Developed and Developing Countries
exist. Ability to successfully implement these solutions with effective
monitoring and evaluation of this implementation exist or can be acquired.
However, the Big Challenge is the Willingness to successfully implement these
solutions with effective monitoring and evaluation of this implementation on
the part of ECOSOC as well as concerned State and Non State Actors at each
level Village to Global. Tackling this Big Challenge is essentially issue of
Changing Attitude and Behaviour at Scale that the NGO Major Group, ECOSOC,
HLPF, UN Security Council, UNGA, World Leaders, UN Family Organization
Executives, 193 Member States and Partners – Village to Global need to
effectively address.
The Roadmap to Paris will be more
productive and result oriented if Structured and Organized produce COP21
Outcome Document that is Vision and Words with Action thus avoiding Error in
AAAA and SDG and in ways that effectively address overarching Goals of Poverty Elimination and
Environmental Sustainability from the Dimensions
of Trade, Aid, Debts and Corruption with focus on Level 1. Implementation Solutions Level 2. Follow Up and Review Solutions Level 3. Capacity Building – Individual
Level - Hard Competences: Learning and Skills and Soft Competences:
Character, Courage and Mindset; Institution
Level – Resources and Processes empowering the Individual to deploy
Competences towards achieving Corporate Goals and Environment Level – Political, Economic, Social, Cultural, Security
and Religious Space for Institutions and Individuals to Thrive on Chaos,
CommWSDS as well as Communication for WSDS.
There is a need to for the Wednesday Group
to give Public exposure to the Draft Recommendation for implementing UNSDS 2015
Outcome and Agenda 21 that Mr Huffines has been saddled with, expanded to
include additional implementation and evaluation issues raised in this
Discussion Paper; to synthesise Global Consultation on these Recommendations
and to send the synthesised Recommendations through appropriate Channel to UN
Security Council, ECOSOC, HLPF and UNGA for consideration and approval as soon
as possible.
There is further need to appreciate that
NGO Major Group, UN, WBG, IMF, 193 Member States Governments and Partners need
Technical Support from Consultant with required Competences that can help each
of the AAAA, SDG and COP21 Outcome Document Stakeholders on State Actors and
Non State Actors sides in each of the 193 Member States to correctly identify
where each Stakeholder is now (A); where each Stakeholder need to be to achieve
AAAA, SDG and COP21 Outcome Document Goals and Targets by 2030 (B) and How to
move from (A) to (B).
There is no need to delay DOING because
all that is required for Moving Forward in each Community in each Local
Government in each of the 193 Member States is available. To delay paradigm
shift from focus on talking and thinking to focus on action and accomplishment
by One Day is to delay One day too much given the reality of the pain and
misery of over 4 Billion Poor elders, men, women, youth and children in each of
the 193 Member States.
There is much to be lost from Village to
Global Stakeholders in 193 Member States and International Institutions
pursuing multiple approaches; unwillingness to freely submit to universal
standards and sanctions and parroting Business Unusual while continuing with
Business as Usual.
There is much to be gained from Village to
Global Stakeholders in 193 Member States and International Institutions
pursuing One Worldwide Approach as recommended by Synthesis Report, each of the
193 Member States and International Institutions freely submitting to universal
standards and sanctions and Actually Practicing Business Unusual.
We are willing to offer a more detailed
information / clarification as required by NGO Major Group, UN Security
Council, ECOSOC, HLPF, UNGA, GA Second Committee and or other relevant UN
Authority as well as any of the 193 Member States.
