Scenes from a side event during the 70th General Assembly: "Using Inclusive Partnerships to Deliver on the SDGs: the Role of Gender-Responsive Budgeting."
The side event built on a series of high-level meetings on transformative financing for gender equality and women’s empowerment and highlighted how inclusive partnerships can improve the effectiveness, quality and impact of financing for gender equality. It showcased country level application of gender-responsive budgeting as a key driver for increasing resources to achieve gender equality commitments in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Moreover, the event will demonstrate the contribution of the Global Partnership for Effective Development Co-operation (GPEDC) as a dynamic platform for fostering mutual learning and contributing to implementation of the SDGs.
The event was hosted by Malawi, Mexico and the Kingdom of the Netherlands as Co-Chairs of the GPEDC, as well as UN Women.

On Monday, after dropping my son off at the Airport in his shiny black Chevy Volt I hung out in Winthrop to avoid the morning rush traffic into Boston. I headed in around 10am to US Fed District Court to pick up a Pass for Media coverage of the same. I turned left on Farnsworth thinking it was a through street. Instead it was a dead end with RCN on the right and what? on the left. I tried both ends for another outlet out. Then turned around heading a right turn out onto Farnsworth. Whatever happened that I did not see this short pile of cones was beyond me., In a split second it seemed I was hearing sounds no one wants to hear. I backed up and knew there had been some serious damage., OMG what a shame. I think it was the sun coming over the buildings as the only shot I have here is from an hour or so later and it was still piercing down pretty bright. I saw nothing. I was so shocked and saddened. My journey into the City was so pleasant driving slowly from 99 to South Station. I thought that was a cool way to come in again . I had never tried that and I loved that route. Then this happened. I had fire police ambulance tow trucks and me delivered to a Body Shop in Revere I had experience with before by 3pm I was ready to bus it home. Got home at 800pm. What a day you don't want to happen. The Fire Department said this never should have been there and removed the 36inch pipe putting it against the wall. They stuffed the cones into the hole and then the police showed up. The police paid a visit to the building 46 Farnsworth and that manager came out and stated the property was owned by Boston Globe or Sustainable Development. Whoever stuffed that pipe into the hole was what I call meathead anonymous. I will forever be ungrateful for that move. Can you hear plastic crunching and metal scraping and grimy fluid draining like blood on the gound? Sad Sad Sad
BLAYAH TOWN, LIBERIA: Aug. 30, 2017 - The Jogbahn Clan fought against the British-owned company Equatorial Palm Oil (EPO) when they tried to take over their land in 2013. The people in the community depend on the land for their livelihoods. The Sustainable Development Institute (SDI) started to help the community by submitting a formal complaint to the to the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). SDI taught the clan about land rights and resisting with non-violence. THE RSPO determined that the land EPO was using belonged to the clan. SGI trained the community how to map their land and boundaries were created that EPO accepted not to cross. Photo by Morgana Wingard

Living Earth Foundation has been working in Nigeria since 1996, previously in partnership with the Living Earth Nigeria Foundation (LENF).
Living Earth Foundation has primarily worked in two key states in Nigeria; Bayelsa and Cross River State, located in the heart of the Niger River Delta on the southern coast of Nigeria. The Delta region is one of Nigeria’s most biodiversity rich areas; its mangrove forest is the largest in Africa and the third largest in the world. The area also contains Nigeria’s main oil reserves and since the discovery of oil in the region in 1956, major infrastructural developments including the building of roads and pipelines, along with an influx of migrant workers have taken place. Two million people now live in Bayelsa State and this, along with on-going development, is greatly impacting on the Delta’s ecosystem.
The natural resources of the Niger Delta are vital to the livelihoods of communities living there; communities generate income through livelihoods including farming, hunting, fishing and trading in forest products. As the oil industry has expanded, increased immigration and access to forests and fisheries has resulted in an over exploitation and unsustainable use of the Delta’s natural resources, threatening the livelihoods of the inhabitants in the area.
Living Earth’s community development and environmental education work enables communities to identify and address environmental problems whilst learning to manage their own resources.

An experimental field with a new rice plant variety developed by scientists at the Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture (BINA). These scientists have worked closely with the IAEA to develop new plant varieties of crops, such as rice, using nuclear and other conventional plant breeding techniques. These new plant varieties are selected for their improved traits, such as shorter growing times, better tolerance to salty soils, and higher yields. These plants mean farmers can grow more food to feed their families and to sell at the market.

The NEA imposes pollution control requirements on all industrial developments to prevent, reduce and control pollution. Major industrial developments are required to carry out pollution control studies to assess all sources of pollution and to recommend mitigating measures that can be incorporated into the design and operation of the developments.
Find out what else Singapore is doing to control industrial pollution. Check out the Sustainable Development Blueprint at www.sustainablesingapore.gov.sg.
The Marina Barrage is a prime example of Singapore’s holistic approach to water management and is the flagship of PUB’s ABC Waters Programme. A 3-in-1 project, it creates an additional source of water supply, acts as a tidal barrier to alleviate flooding in the low-lying city areas and also serves as a lifestyle attraction right in the heart of the city.

Ivory burning site in Nairobi National Park. In 2016, the Kenyan government burned more than 105 tons of elephant irony and rhino horn - the largest burning in the world to date - as a sign of opposition to the illegal wildlife trade. To date, poaching has declined by more then 80% since 2013, due in part to increased security and conservation measures.
