Implementation, realization #1 du challenge: #sustainablefinancing. Main resources have to come from country themselves – domestic resources mobilisation; calling private sector into responsibility – Dr Ingolf Dietrich (@BMZ_Bund) #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

#2 challenge: inequality, between *and* within countries. Inclusion and participation needs to be fostered. – Dr Ingolf Dietrich (@BMZ_Bund) #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

Inequality among populations is one of the main challenges regarding the implementation of the #Agenda2030, Dr. Ingolf Dietrich states. #weltimwandel

— FIW Bonn (@FIW_Bonn) December 12, 2017

#3 challenge: Interrelation – #SDGs interlinked; cooperation of government, private sector and #societyapproach needed – Dr Ingolf Dietrich (@BMZ_Bund) #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

Awareness raising needed. Apart from #innovations, e.g. LEDs; #behavioralchange needed, based on #culturalchange – #biking, #solarenneegy, #wastereduction needs to be the #newnormal, cool, just as #stopsmoking. – Dr Ingolf Dietrich (@BMZ_Bund) #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

Only 1 out of 10 Germans knows about the #SDGs, therefore it is important to raise awareness of sustainability – Dr. Ingolf Dietrich #weltimwandel

Ned Sibeya (National Development Advice, #Namibia) and@KetiiS (Ministry of Justice, #Georgia) join Dr. Dietrich (@BMZ_Bund) on stage, to add an #internationalperspective on new ways of thinking and doing politics @FIW_Bonn #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs pic.twitter.com/ZZgdh3ppal

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

#Georgia created special government agency for implementation, mainstreaming #SDGs into own gov institution – @KetiiS #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

Changing behavior, raising awareness in #Georgia public *and* own government employees who are responsible and crucial for proper implementation still insufficient; needs to be tailored; crucial for acceptance, realization of #SDGs – @KetiiS #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

.@KetiiS highlights the fact, that people living in rural areas and urban areas have a different understanding of #SDGs. As a result, officials need to approach them in a different way. #weltimwandel

— FIW Bonn (@FIW_Bonn) December 12, 2017

#Namibia started domestication of #SDGs by mainstreaming them into National Development Plan. Measurement of some #SDGs achievement indicators were not available, had to be established at first. – Ned Sibeya (National Development Advice, Namibia) #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 pic.twitter.com/V7FJX4vak1

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

Understanding, interpretation, translation of #SDGs into own national policies was groundwork to determine goals, their indicators, action plan and strategies –@KetiiS (Ministry of Justice, #Georgia) #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

Implementing #SDGs into National Development Plan, emphasising #sustainabledevelopment means accountability on global level –
Ned Sibeya (National Development Advice, #Namibia) #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

In Georgia, the main achievement within the last two years regarding sustainable development was organizing activities in line with the #SDGs and having an action plan, @KetiiS states.

— FIW Bonn (@FIW_Bonn) December 12, 2017

When talking about goals (#SDGs, #ParisAgreement), it is important to think about the small steps and the pathways. Also, we have to look at the Agenda as a whole and not on single #SDGs – Dr. Ingolf Dietrich

— FIW Bonn (@FIW_Bonn) December 12, 2017

Dr. Ingolf Dietrich (@BMZ_Bund) demands Germany's #PublicProcurement to become sustainable #weltimwandel #Agenda2030 #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

Revision of Germany's National Development Plan in 2020 will also take #globalresponsibility in light of impact on #SDGs achievement worldwide into acc – Dr. Ingolf Dietrich (@BMZ_Bund) #weltimwandel #Agenda2030

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

The #Agenda2030 is more relevant than ever, as global challenges rise. In terms of nationalistic tendencies that can be observed in a lot of countries worldwide, it's important to have a global agenda focusing on sustainability – Dr. Ingolf Dietrich #weltimwandel

— FIW Bonn (@FIW_Bonn) December 12, 2017

#Agenda2030 is not only about taking #globalresponsibility, but also about #futuregeneration s – "Welt Zukunfts Vertrag"/ World Future Contract – Dr. Ingolf Dietrich (@BMZ_Bund) #weltimwandel #SDGs

— JFKuhlmann (@JF_Kuhlmann) December 12, 2017

As 40% of the food is wasted in Germany, this might be one concrete example when informing about #SDGs, Dr. Dietrich states. Different groups need be approached differently regarding educating about the #Agenda2030 #weltimwandel

— FIW Bonn (@FIW_Bonn) December 12, 2017
