Legislators participate in awareness raising seminars to support implementation of the SDGs in Colombia

In Colombia, legislators have frequently participated in events focused on SDG sensitization, hosted by NGOs and international organizations, to build capacity for integrating the SDGs into legislation.

A first seminar to sensitize legislators to the SDGs was held in November 2018. In February 2020, a second seminar was offered, on the environmental and sustainability dimensions of the SDGs. Then, in December 2020, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, the parliamentary Legal Committee for Women's Equality came together with Pacto Global Colombia in a webinar to discuss SDG 5 and setbacks resulting from the pandemic.
