 Representatives from the United Nations have met with stakeholders of different sectors in Nigeria. They met to chart ways of helping countries like Nigeria address priorities towards meeting sustainable development goals. The United Nations Sustainable Development Corporation framework is for the period of 2023 to 2027. Jacinta Albuco has more. The now-requisite United Nations Sustainable and Development Corporation framework for 2023 to 2027 is the fifth framework of the union. The objective and expectation of this meeting were to address core programming principles of the Five Peace 2030 agenda. There are people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnerships. The framework we ensure that no one is left behind. The focus of the cooperation framework is to be able to come up with a plan for the time horizon that we have mentioned before that will address the development humanitarian and peace needs of Nigeria. So we already have a draft theory of change that we have done within our cycle in the UN and we are taking this theory of change across the six different zones of Nigeria to strengthen the relationship and partnership of the United Nations, UN agencies and the different stakeholders involved in sustainable development of the country. A senior lecturer in the University of Abaddon, Professor Lanry Olaneyo, in his presentation explained what is in the cooperation framework. It is a commitment of the UN system to the people of Nigeria, particularly the most marginalized and vulnerable and it is available for supporting economic transformation as well as supporting peaceful societies through sustainable development strategies specific to diverse country contexts. Participants spoke on how important the UN and the federal government collaboration is. What we can do at the UN to bring people around the table to leverage those capacities to help Nigeria achieve the goals that it set out for itself over this next period, you know, the different national and sectorial development plans that have been put in place, which also sit under a larger international framework. We're looking at how this new partnership, the continuous partnership will help to improve the lives of women and girls, even everyone in the Nigerian economy, because we know that without the support of these international agencies to some extents, we are actually lagging behind. We are talking about zero tolerance to any form of abuse. We're not yet there. The UN SDCF 2023-2027 is expected to reflect Nigeria's economic, social and environmental conditions and will provide a strategic framework to address the nation's developmental and humanitarian challenges.
