Dili 2019 (11-14 November)

The 2019 16+ Forum Annual Showcase will be held in Dili, Timor-Leste from the 11-14 November. This third Annual Showcase will again bring together a diverse group of SDG 16+ practitioners, policy-makers and thought-leaders to learn, exchange and share in SDG 16+ best practices, across stakeholders and contexts.

Building upon the successes of the Georgia Annual Showcase in 2017 and the Sierra Leone Annual Showcase in 2018, this SDG 16+ global gathering will come on the heels of HLPF 2019 and the SDG Summit, reinforcing the need for sustained political will, multi-stakeholder commitment and a continued focus on implementation.

Concept Note

In the midst of an exciting SDG 16+ year, 2019 marks a historic year in Timor-Leste's history as the 20th anniversary since the referendum and 17 years since independence was restored. With Timor-Leste presenting its first Voluntary National Review at this year's High-Level Political Forum in July, this Timor-Leste Annual Showcase provides a particularly compelling opportunity to showcase and support SDG 16+ implementation well beyond 2019.

Background Documents

This year's 16+ Forum Annual Showcase will be held in Díli, Timor-Leste from the 11-14 November. Still one of the youngest countries in the world, and with ambitions to become a middle- income country by 2030, advancing peaceful, just and inclusive societies is a priority for Timor-Leste at the national and international level. As a global champion of SDG 16 and one of the initial advocates for SDG 16 as a standalone goal, Timor-Leste is a timely host for this 3rd Annual Showcase.
