In preparation for the 2024 Quadrennial Comprehensive Policy Review (QCPR), General Assembly (GA) resolution 78/166, requested the Secretary-General to provide Member States with status reporting on the implementation of the current 2020 QCPR (General Assembly resolution 75/233). This page provides a collection of resources on the status of QCPR implementation.
This complements existing availability of materials on the 2024 QCPR page, and comprehensive reports and its annexes. The Secretary-General’s report on the implementation of the QCPR and the report of the Chair of the UNSDG on the Development Coordination Office are the two key annual documents providing comprehensive analysis of the implementation of the resolution 75/233 on the QCPR, since its adoption in 2020. The annual ECOSOC operational activities segment allows Member States to deliberate on the implementation of the QCPR and provide additional guidance on the operational activities of the United Nations.
