Abstract
The theme of the Regional Forum was “Empowering people and ensuring inclusiveness and equality”, and focused on select Sustainable Development Goals for this High-level Political Forum together with the corresponding goals of Agenda 2063. Accordingly, the sub-themes of the forum were ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education; promoting decent work and inclusive economic growth; ensuring reduced inequalities; scaling up climate action; ensuring peace, justice and strong institutions; strengthening the means of implementation and the partnership for sustainable development. The Regional Forum adopted policy recommendations for Africa in the form of key messages and the Marrakech Declaration on Sustainable Development in Africa. These constitute the input of the African region to this meeting of the High-level Political Forum and the upcoming Summit meeting on the Sustainable Development Goals, to be held in September this year.
