Liaison Officer - Diplomatisches Staatsprotokoll

Liaison Officer
Hamburg Sustainability Conference 2025 (HSC)
2 - 3 June 2025

The Hamburg Sustainability Conference (HSC) challenges barriers to SDG implementation, while steering momentum with a systemic approach to answer questions such as: How can value chains become climate-friendly and create more value for emerging societies and developing countries? How can the enormous potential of the private sector be unleashed to achieve the SDGs? And how can we help today’s sustainability pioneers to set tomorrow's standards? In times of increasing geopolitical crises, challenges are continually growing. A new impetus is needed to improve the ability of the global community to collaborate and advance the implementation of the SDGs by 2030. The conference aims to foster new partnerships and collective action of those who are willing to commit to action: global policymakers, private sector leaders, academia experts, and civil society representatives.
