10:00 AM - 01:00 PM (CR.4) General Assembly: Informal interactive dialogue on the Responsibility to Protect.
The responsibility to protect and accountability for prevention.
The dialogue has several purposes:
- First, it will provide a forum for Member States to assess the existing gap between commitment to the responsibility to protect and implementation of the principle, as well as to discuss measures conducive to close it.
- Second, it will constitute an opportunity to exchange views and perspectives on venues and lines of accountability in the implementation of each of the three pillars.
- Third, the dialogue will suggest next steps to accelerate implementation and accountability for prevention.
- Fourth, the dialogue will help underscore the need for a renewed faith in collective action and an improved capacity to coordinate an effective atrocity prevention collective agenda.

In order to maintain momentum around the implementation of the New Urban Agenda and to reflect on the positioning of UN-Habitat in that regard, the President of the UN General Assembly convenes a two-day high-level meeting of the General Assembly 5 to 6 of September 2017.
The meeting will discuss, inter alia, best practices, success stories in relation to implementation of the New Urban Agenda. It will also address the measures contained in the Report from the Secretary General’s Independent Panel to Assess, Enhance Effectiveness of UN-Habitat after Adoption of New Urban Agenda, which is expected to be published by end July 2017.
