Join the Stakeholder Engagement Process for VNRs 2026

Image description

Hi {{ firstname }}

 

Preparation for the High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) in 2026 has begun! This year 36 countries are set to present their Voluntary National Reviews (VNRs) and there will be opportunities for stakeholders from every country to participate. We are excited to invite independent stakeholders to actively engage in the stakeholder process. Your participation is essential in shaping the VNR presentations and contributing valuable questions and insights.


The Major Groups and Other Stakeholders (MGoS) play a key role in ensuring that diverse voices, especially those of civil society, are heard in the SDG monitoring process. To strengthen this engagement, we are inviting inputs for statements to be delivered during the VNR presentations in July 2026. The complete list of VNR countries for 2026 is available below.


You can check out the official HLPF page on VNRs here.

If you or your partners work in any of the countries under review, we are excited to let you know how to engage.

2. Contribute to VNR MGoS Statements

We invite stakeholders to join the collaborative drafting process for country-specific statements. These statements, to be presented by elected speakers during the HLPF 2026 VNR sessions, are critical to ensuring that civil society perspectives are integrated into the dialogue.

If you represent an organization or network working on Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) implementation in one of the 39 VNR countries, your input is invaluable. Please fill out the form at your earliest convenience. The form will remain open until March 1st, 2026.


3. Spread the Word

We encourage you to share this invitation with colleagues, networks, and other relevant stakeholders who may be interested in contributing to this vital initiative.

Your dedication to this collaborative effort will help amplify the voices of civil society and foster a more inclusive dialogue at HLPF 2026. We look forward to your active participation in this important journey toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
