This year’s Integration Segment was themed “Implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development through Policy Innovation and Integration”.
The deputy minister delivered a speech at the session on “Institutional frameworks and policy planning”, saying that policy innovation and integration presents challenges and opportunities for all UN member states, particularly a lower middle-income country like Vietnam .
