Climate Change and Global Governance: A Conversation with Ban Ki-moon on the UN Sustainable Development Goals

Please join us for a special session with the 8th United Nations Secretary General, the Honorable Ban Ki-moon, on how the United Nations Special Development Goals (SDGs) shape and can accelerate global climate action. As a respected leader at the forefront of the most urgent global questions—how to make life sustainable for all—Mr. Ban will share his perspective on the overlap of the SDGs and the global climate agenda, the lessons learned from implementation of the SDGs both globally and in the Asian region, as well as the highest priorities and key recommendations for the next five years.

Mr. Ban’s remarks will be followed by a moderated conversation with Asia Society’s President and CEO, Dr. Kyung-wha Kang.
