Seventh Local and Regional Governments Forum on the 2030 Agenda was held on 10th of July. 

The Forum was one of the special events within the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development. The event was dedicated to the topic "Governing in Partnership and Powering a Local SDG Rescue Plan".

The Forum was organized by UN DESA, Global Taskforce of Local and Regional Governments (GTF), UN-Habitat, UNDP and the Local 2030 Coalition.

The objective of the 2024 LRGF was to showcase effective localization policies and high impact coalitions led by the local and regional government constituency, in relation to the SDGs under review at the 2024 HLPF, and with a particular focus on the SDG Rescue Plan and the links of the 2030 Agenda with the Summit of the Future. The LRGF was aimed at featuring innovative advancements in local reporting and monitoring initiatives such as the VLRs and VSRs in connection to VNRs, as well as to foster multilevel governance and partnerships among different spheres of government, the international community, and other stakeholders towards closing the gap on SDG implementation.

2024 is a key year for the local and regional government constituency because the Summit of the Future convened in September to forge a new global consensus on our shared future. The local and regional government constituency has actively engaged in the Summit of the Future process to strengthen engagement between local and regional governments and the UN system through the Local Authorities Major Group and through the Advisory Group on Local and Regional Governments to the UN Secretary-General. The event offered an opportunity for the constituency to share key messages and inputs towards the Summit of the Future and the 2025 World Social Summit.

The results and recommendations of the Forum was presented at the Summit of the Future, which ensured the integration of local and regional perspectives into global strategies and solutions.
