Qatar has affirmed that Qatar National Vision 2030 is a solid framework for achieving sustainable development at the national level, noting that it has integrated the goals and objectives of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development into sections of the National Development Strategy (2018-2022).
Qatar’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations HE Ambassador Sheikha Alia Ahmed bin Saif Al Thani said this during the general discussion of the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development ‘Accelerated Action and Transformative Pathways: Realising the Decade of Action and Delivery for Sustainable Development’.
Highlighting efforts to fulfil the State’s obligations to implement the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, she said Qatar has submitted voluntary national reviews that gave a transparent picture of the progress made by the country in implementing the Sustainable Development Goals discussed.
Qatar continues with confident and urgent steps in its development process and has made great achievements in the development field. Qatar’s investment in science, technology and innovation has also enabled the State to take urgent and effective measures to contain COVID-19 pandemic and mitigating its effects, the ambassador added. She noted Qatar’s successful experience at the national level, which, since the beginning of the pandemic, has enabled distance learning quickly without any interruption.
She also stressed that, in line with the pioneering role of Qatar at the international level to ensure the provision of quality education services, especially in areas with conflict, it will continue to work with international partners to ensure continued education in areas affected by this pandemic.
Recognising the importance of multilateral action, Qatar’s efforts were not only limited to the national level, as it continued as an active partner at the international level, she said, adding that Qatar has provided $10mn to the World Health Organization, in addition to a total contribution of $20mn to the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization. It also provided financial and medical equipment to enhance the capacity of many affected countries of the Covid 19.
She stressed achieving the ambitious aspirations of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development will not be possible without paying special attention to the priorities and needs of developing countries and the least developed countries in particular.
She expressed confidence that the conference will be an important opportunity to bring about a transformational change in the lives of those who live in the most vulnerable countries in the world, adding that the outcome document of the conference will be an important opportunity to devote a new global effort to achieve the overall goal of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of leaving no one behind.
