New York, 17 July 2017 - ‘The SDGs in Action: Eradicating Poverty and Promoting Inclusive Prosperity in a Changing World,’ a high level side event organized by the UN Development Group, in conjunction with the High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF 2017), discussed how countries at various stages of development, including those faced with complex situations such as violent conflict and fragility are accelerating efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The theme of the HLPF, ‘Eradicating poverty and promoting prosperity in a changing world’ challenges the UN and Member States to hold true to the 2030 Agenda pledge to leave no one behind and to reach the furthest behind first.
Mr. Achim Steiner, UNDG Chair and UNDP Administrator highlighted on the need to pursue an integrated approach versus “cherry-picking” priority areas, where the UN can help identify synergies and trade-offs in different country contexts to determine interventions that yield benefits across several SDGs.
“The critical importance of leaving no one behind and reaching the furthest behind first: here the UN can help countries better understand and address inequalities in all their forms”.

GDF will feature keynote addresses by The Honorable Ander Crenshaw, U.S. Representative, R-FL; and Dr. Sri Mulyani Indrawati, Managing Director of the World Bank Group. Breakout panel discussions will foster dialogue on topics including private sector partnerships, capacity building and workforce development, innovative finance, the post-2015 global development agenda, Ebola recovery in West Africa, and the strategic role of development in overall U.S. foreign policy. GDF will feature over 40 speakers, including key stakeholders from U.S. government agencies, leading multilateral and non-governmental organizations, foreign governments, and the private sector.
With a significant reduction in extreme poverty and an increase in private financial flows to the developing world over the past two decades, the face of development is rapidly changing. Meeting today’s challenges calls for innovation and effective partnerships across sectors, with an emphasis on improving governance and leveraging the role of the private sector.
The 2015 Global Development Forum will be held on Thursday, April 23, from 8:00AM – 3:45PM at the Center for Strategic and International Studies’ headquarters.

For Core Studio project. We were assigned a mythical character from which we had to distill an inherent dichotomy and create a visual profile around it.
My character was Budai and the dichotomy was Excess and Contentment.
The logo is for a voting-system that would be implemented into ATMs.
Tarmac (this road over the hill used to be a dust track in 2014), electricity (green building in background providing town centre - just not today though) and water (pipes are being digged into ground as I'm watching). All on one corner in Kigoma. People want development, maendeleo, a word commonly used when I ask - broadly - what people want politics to lead to.
I'm also reminded though that development takes time. Like today where I consulted the personal assistant to the MP of Kigoma Urban in his office. I need his help to identify municipality members (councillors) for me to interview. (This part is in fact lovely easy and non-bureaucratic. The research permit I was nervous of not getting, the one I paid 350$ for out of my own pocket, no one cares to see it.)
As we go through the list, mentioning the councillors elected via elections, reaching to special seats, it's all men. I haven't spoken to one woman yet (in terms of my field study), and I just felt a dash of panic. I'm exhausted listening to (men's) explanations of why there's so few women in the political public sphere. I have to pull myself together, try not to get irritated.
Till someone (a man) reminds me that there actually was a female presidential candidate (Anna Mghwira) running during 2015 elections. 'Have i considered the potential impact of that?!'
I am now.

'"It's like people don't believe that a woman can take politics seriously despite the fact that in Tanzania we have had a lot of women who have held high positions such as ministers, RCs and other areas of leadership including the private sector and women in business. That is leadership where you deal with people and commodities at the same time.
With all these female leaders we still ask why a woman? '

This painting is a mix media on a Taktee (a wooden panel) depicting the hypocrisy of divide of human civilization in the name of politics of nihilism, sadly it is in the possession of Mr.Saleem Asmi (Ex. Editor DAWN) who allegedly bought it, with the connivance of the main organizers of the convention of PIPFPD, held here in Karachi in December 2003 at a local hotel, with out my consent as the work was on display only and not for sale.
