Olympia Forum III – October, 20-22, 2022
This year’s Olympia Forum’s topics are focused on the 17 Sustainable Development
Goals set by the United Nations and to be achieved by year 2030.
These goals cover the full range of Regional Development Policy by approaching
environmental, economic, social and cultural policies and actions and are the core
policies and actions of the European Union Regional Policy, as implemented in the
Member States as well as in Greece.
As the 2030 deadline approaches, frequent and accurate monitoring of the
implementation of the “Agenda 30” and its 17 goals is required. And above all, action
and the promotion of good practices are required.
This year’s Olympia Forum will highlight the good practices of countries and
municipalities that aim to implement these 17 goals (i.e. fight poverty, cheap and clean
energy, climate action, etc.).
The sum of all these good practices is what will bring the final result – the overall
Sustainable Regional Development.
