Chairperson of the Senate of the Oliy Majlis, Tanzila Narbayeva, met with UN Resident Coordinator in Uzbekistan, Sabine Machl.

During the talks, the sides highlighted the successful holding of the 80th session of the UN General Assembly and emphasized the importance of the initiatives put forward by the President of Uzbekistan for the development of the international community. They also exchanged views on setting plans and ensuring the effective implementation of these initiatives.

It was noted that the reforms aimed at building the New Uzbekistan are fully aligned with the SDGs.

In this regard, the parties also explored ways to further expand cooperation, including involving UN institutions in parliamentary hearings on the implementation of national sustainable development targets. Special attention was paid to ensuring the effective implementation of goals and tasks at the regional level.

The meeting also discussed plans to actively involve young people in achieving the SDGs, including through the organization of the 3rd Global Forum on Inter-Parliamentary Cooperation for Achieving the SDGs.
