Other points of the report include the collaboration with the Global South, the adoption of an EU financing plan for the SDGs; review of the financial architecture to close the financing gap, the importance of EU Voluntary Review as well as national reviews, a call on the Commission to establish a permanent platform for NGOs to exchange on SDGs as well as the importance of the EU's leading role in this process.
