GCE will host a side event at the High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) 2024 titled ‘The Voices of the People: Civil Society Spotlight Reports on VNR’. This event is scheduled for 17 July 2024, from 2:30-4pm SAST.
The purpose of this virtual side event is to foster a dialogue on the realization of the human right to education, with a focus on state obligations under SDG4. By hosting the event online, GCE aims to include a diverse audience who may not be able to attend the in-person sessions of the Voluntary National Reviews (VNRs).
The event will feature Education Spotlight Reports and perspectives from regional civil society, which will complement and provide alternative insights to the official documents presented by States during the VNR process.
Participants will engage in discussions comparing the findings from the Spotlight Reports with official data. This comparative analysis will be crucial for establishing measurement standards for regional and global progress towards the sustainable development agenda.
