The United Nations High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF) is a core UN platform for the follow-up and review of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals. This Forum is held annually in New York, NY at the UN Headquarters. The UN General Assembly decided that the forum meets annually under the auspices of the Economic and Social Council. 

Delegates have the chance to discuss, debate, and mediate over key issues that face youth today that are directly linked to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Meeting with delegates from around the world to discuss the Sustainable Development Goals and their applications, delegates have the chance to learn about international cooperation and have the chance to amplify youth voices and the issues they face daily.
