(2) Explore how the Regional Organizations perceive the process of implementation of the 2030 Agenda, and present alternatives of partnerships with CSOs and other key actors to advance the Agenda for Sustainable Development; and

(3) Lead to the formulation of policy recommendations on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, based on the exchange among key stakeholders.
