Qatar has confirmed that the global programme to implement the Doha Declaration issued by the 13th United Nations Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice in 2015, has achieved the highest possible outcome in support of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations, as the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) did not prevent the programme from continuing.
Ambassador of Qatar to Austria and permanent Representative of Qatar to the United Nations and international organizations in Vienna HE Sultan bin Salmeen Al Mansouri made the remarks during a video conference meeting of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in Vienna, on the activities of the Global Programm under the slogan “Transforming Policies into Actions”.
He said the member states of the United Nations unanimously adopted the Doha Declaration a few months before the adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and the Doha Declaration had its forward-looking vision in support of this plan and its emphasis on seeking to implement comprehensive policies and programmes that promote socio-economic development and provide support to other member states in their endeavours.
Mansouri said the Doha Declaration was built on the close interdependence and mutual impact of sustainable development and the rule of law. Its motto was to integrate crime prevention and criminal justice into the broader United Nations agenda to address social and economic challenges, strengthen the rule of law at the national and international levels.
He said the implementation of the United Nations sustainable development agenda in 2016 began during the same year of the launch of the Doha Declaration Global Programme funded by Qatar, the largest funding programme provided by one country in the history of the UN Office. T
The Qatari diplomat reviewed the achievements of the Global Programme during the past five years, and said that the sustainable development plan pledged to ensure no one will be left behind and the programme achieved this goal as it reached about two million people from 192 countries, and more than 55,000 people benefited from more than 500 support and capacity building activities.
Mansouri affirmed the commitment of Qatar to continue working with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime to build on the achievements of the global programme to implement the Doha Declaration and continue to contribute to the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development goals at all levels.
H called on other countries to work with a shared responsibility spirit and support the activities and programmes of the Office for the sake of rule of law, justice, equality, tolerance, openness and social inclusion for all, and to refrain from enacting and implementing any unilateral economic, financial or commercial measures that are inconsistent with international law and the Charter of United Nations.
