ECLAC’s Executive Secretary took part today in Empowering people to protect the planet in a COVID-19 context, a side event to the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development 2021.
On the day of celebrations organized by ECLAC, the region’s countries reaffirmed the importance of the first regional environmental treaty and their commitment to protecting the planet and the people who defend it.
The day of celebrations will take place virtually on April 22, the date on which the provisions of Latin America and the Caribbean’s first environmental treaty will officially go into effect.
