10:00 AM - 10:45 AM
Under the umbrella of Women Rise for All—the initiative led by United Nations Deputy Secretary‑General Amina Mohammed to amplify the transformational leadership of women in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—this Goals Lounge session celebrated the remarkable impact of women leaders worldwide.
As part of this initiative, the Goals Lounge at UN Headquarters hosted a discussion featuring four UN Resident Coordinators, each of whom highlighted exceptional women leaders driving SDG progress in their respective countries. Their stories showcased youth advocates, academics, artists, innovators, and community changemakers, offering powerful examples of women’s leadership shaping more inclusive and sustainable societies.
The discussion explored innovative approaches accelerating SDG achievement and reflected on the opportunities and challenges facing women leaders across diverse contexts. The fireside chat also reconnected with the Resident Coordinators of Chile and Jordan, continuing the conversation from the 2024 Intergenerational Dialogues and sharing updates on developments since then.
This session aims to inspire deeper collaboration, elevate impactful leadership models, and reaffirm the essential role of women in advancing sustainable development globally.
