The situation of the #SDGs is alarming. Top down approach is not enough so we must focus more on the local and regional aspect. The urgency of action is understood theoretically, but it does not resonate with operational level realities and everyday work of cities.

Policy alignment between different levels of government is crucial to the fulfillment of #SDGs:
- to have #SDGs localisation in the EU Voluntary Review
- monitoring to include regional data,
- better harness #SDGs to the EU recovery process. @ricardorio

@mmarkkula Cities and regions should be given a more prominent role on #SDGs as well as direct allocation of financial and technical resources. We must track progress as one of the most common action, together with a dedicated strategy and awareness raising. @trzaskowski_
