The Inter-Regional Preparatory Meeting (IPM) for the Third International Conference on Small Island Developing States (SIDS) continued on Tuesday, 27 August, in Bridgetown, Barbados. In the morning, delegates took part in two roundtable discussions on: enabling sustainable growth opportunities in SIDS through the ocean sector and designing appropriate and sustainable debt management strategies in SIDS. Delegates also discussed new UN structures and processes such as the sustainable development goals, the post-2015 development agenda and the outcomes of the Apia Conference.
In the afternoon, delegates participated in a discussion with Major Groups on their contribution to implementing the Barbados Plan of Action and the Mauritius Strategy for Implementation. Delegates also discussed Major Groups’ priorities for the post-2015 development agenda. A closed session on the key priorities for the sustainable development of SIDS was then convened. Following this, all delegates were invited to attend an open plenary session to further deliberate on the topic. Contact and drafting groups met throughout the day to discuss the meeting outcome document.
