Bangkok, 25-28 February 2025 – The Constantinian Order, thanks to its Special Consultive Status to the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations Organizations, and Observer at the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UN-ESCAP) has been invited to join the Twelfth Asia-Pacific Forum on Sustainable Development, held at the United Nations Conference Centre in Bangkok.
The Delegate for Southeast Asia, H.E. Don Antonio Benedetto Spada, Knight of the Royal Order of Saint Januarius, has designated the Vice Delegate Dame Commander Paola Benaglia to participate to this Conference which theme was “Advancing sustainable, inclusive, science- and evidence-based solutions for the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals for leaving no one behind in Asia and the Pacific”.
Sustained economic growth in Asia and the Pacific has lifted millions out of poverty, yet progress lags—less than 1/6 of targets are on track.
Leaders stressed the urgency of bold, targeted actions to accelerate progress: investing in climate resilience and clean energy; transforming food systems; harnessing tech for inclusive, sustainable growth, highlighting the need for a just transition to green and blue economies—ensuring sustainability while creating decent jobs.
