The EDD 2016 will focus on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. The Agenda provides a once-in-a-generation opportunity to eradicate poverty once and for all and shift our planet onto a sustainable, inclusive, peaceful and prosperous path. 2016 is a key year to move from commitment to action!

All day event
Organized by the European Commission, the European Development Days (EDD) bring the development community together each year to share ideas and experiences in ways that inspire new partnerships and innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges.
For its tenth anniversary, EDD 2016 will focus on the ‘2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development’, making it one of the very first major conferences dedicated to the issue.
The EDD 2016 programme – over 120 sessions, 67 stands, side events, a cultural exhibition, and much more – is built around our 15 EDD topics to help you focus on the issues that matter to you. Wonder through the EDD Village and dive deep into projects and reports from around the world; check out our special side events covering issues from resilience to the role of business in development; explore our cultural programme – art, photography, music, and dance that speak to development today; and learn more about our Youth Agenda for younger delegates, including 16 Young Leaders selected to represent the voice of youth at the EDDs.
