Against this background, the Workshop focused on the following questions and topics: How does the local and urban level utilize past experiences in SD in the implementation of the SDGs?; How to move from previous SD activities and systems to activities and systems that integrate the SDGs at the local and urban level?; reflecting on impulses and support from existing local and urban networks in the implementation of the SDGs; showcasing practical examples of SDG implementation at the local and urban level; and developing recommendations for the effective implementation of the SDGs at the local and urban level.
