To support the United Nations in its efforts to achieve the SDGs amid interconnected crises, UN DESA will host a Global Policy Dialogue on 7 November, on "Leveraging Digital Technologies for SDG Action." The dialogue will be divided into two panels that will draw on the key findings and recommendations of the UN E-Government Survey 2024 and to ensure transformations at the necessary scale and speed.

Despite intersecting and compounding global crises in recent years, nations and regions worldwide have accelerated their commitment to digital government strategies, according to the 2024 edition of the United Nations E-Government Survey – Accelerating Digital Transformation for Sustainable Development, launched by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA). The Survey shows that significant strides have been made to digital governance, boosted by investments in resilient infrastructure and cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, cloud computing and broadband. Yet, while digital transformation has sparked innovation and growth, particularly in the private sector, many countries still face hurdles in fully leveraging these advancements to enhance public services and participation, key components for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

This dialogue is made possible by the UN Peace and Development Trust Fund.
