Over three days, participative discussions were related to OECD's observation that "progress towards achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development remains slow and uneven, and a major obstacle to advancing SDGs in emerging and developing economies is that most private finance and business activities are neither aligned with SDGs nor compatible with low-emission, climate-resilient development pathways."
