Organised under the theme: Sustainable business solutions that deliver change, the event will bring together participants

from the private sector, government department, academia, civil society and NGOs to exchange views and discuss

acceleration efforts being undertaken in the last stretch to 2015 and also look at the post 2015 agenda. With the UN General
