To be convened by the Secretary-General in mid-September 2021, the High-level Dialogue on Energy (HLDE) represents the first global gathering on energy under the auspices of the General Assembly since 1981. Amidst human development and economic losses created by the pandemic, the HLDE aims to put SDG7 at the forefront of the global policy agenda ahead of the UNFCCC Climate Change Conference - COP26 – a critical milestone to put the world on track to meet the Paris Agreement targets and kick-start the ‘Decade of Action’. 

The UNDP Administrator is Co-Chairing the HLDE, together with the Secretary-General’s Special Representative on Sustainable Energy for All, the CEO of Sustainable Energy for All (SE4ALL), Co-Chair of UN-Energy, and the Dialogue High-level Champion, Ms. Damiola Ogunbiyi. UNDP’s role as Co-Chair is to ensure diverse and inclusive representation geographically and from different stakeholder groups, in particular of Least Developed Countries, Small Island Developing States, women and youth.
