OWG-12On Friday, the Open Working Group (OWG) on Sustainable Development Goals continued consideration of the “zero draft” of the goals and their potential targets. Throughout the day, the OWG informally discussed proposed goal 17: Strengthen and enhance the means of implementation and global partnership for sustainable development.

At 5:35 pm, Co-Chair Macharia Kamau (Kenya) opened the second formal session of OWG-12, noting that the Group made “amazing progress” during the week. He announced that there would be “informal-informals” from 9-11 July, to be followed by the final meeting of the OWG from 14-18 July. He said that a revised version of the zero draft should be ready by 30 June and that it will have fewer targets, and be a more refined, balanced and “tighter” document. He expressed the Co-Chairs’ confidence that the OWG will successfully conclude its work on 18 July and agree on a set of goals and targets. He closed OWG-12 at 5:50 pm.
