of the Department for Economic and Social Policy and Development (UNDESA),

for all at all ages (SDG3): reduction in global maternal mortality & access
to sexual and reproductive health-care services, including for family planning.
Family policies for poverty and
hunger eradication (SDG1, 2): reduction of poverty, social protection, access to basic services, create sound policy frameworks at the
national, regional and international level, ender hunger and improve nutrition.

All the speakers expressed the high
level of expertise, the significance of the role of the family at all levels,
specially in preventing poverty and educating for the future in order to
achieve what is mentioned in the Preamble of Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development,
”to strength universal peace in larger
freedom, and to free the human race from the tyranny of poverty and want and to
heal and secure our planet. We are determined to take the bold and
transformative steps which are urgently needed to shift the world onto a
sustainable and resilient path” (Quote: UN. Sustainable Development.
