UCLG continues to work on the preparation of a Report on the Vision of the Future by Local and Regional Governments by 2045. On June 10, 2020, a meeting of the Global Task Force to discuss the Report was held.
Secretary General of UCLG-Eurasia Rasikh Sagitov took part in the online meeting and presented the vision of the Eurasian region. “As for the vision of 2045, we would like to add the most important point – peace, as the sustainable development is not possible without it. The 75th anniversary of the UN is, first of all, the 75th anniversary of the Great Victory in the Second World War. Therefore, in 2045 and further in the future, we would like to see a peaceful world”, Rasikh Sagitov noted in his speech.
As a reminder, this year the United Nations has celebrated its 75th anniversary and on this occasion has launched a global conversation dedicated to the theme “The Future We Want in 2045 – the Year of the UN’s 100th Anniversary”. The UN Secretary-General has requested UCLG to form the vision of local and regional governments of the future. For this purpose, in April 2020, the Eurasia Regional Section of UCLG held two discussions. Mayors and their deputies, representatives of regions’ leadership, as well as heads of associations of local and regional governments took part in these debates.
