Vuk Jeremic recently detailed his priorities, with the post-2015 development agenda as first on his list. He noted the mandate from Rio+20, to be in charge of follow-up, including the formation of the Open Working Group (OWG) on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Jeremic said he will take responsibility for determining the members of the 30-member group, in a joint effort alongside Brazil’s Permanent Representative. In that capacity, he will seek to ensure that the process is fully complementary and combined with the process around the post-2015 development agenda, especially the work of the OWG and the High-Level Panel (HLP) on the Post-2015 Development Agenda. The HLP is expected to put its list of goals forward next May.
