Sustainable Development dialogues
Organised by the Government of Brazil
The Government of Brazil is convening a Sustainable Development Dialogue series with the aim of
bringing together civil society, public and private sectors, the scientific community and academia to
contribute ideas and suggestions on sustainable development. Conclusions and
recommendations from the Dialogues will be conveyed directly to the heads of State and
Government gathering in Rio June 20-22. These dialogues which have already started online
will culminate in a live event in Rio from 16 – 18 June prior to the UN Conference.
