At the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, the United Nations system was requested to mainstream the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development throughout its work. The two progress reports submitted since then indicated that such efforts woul d result in better support to Member States in their pursuit of sustainable development. The reports also highlighted that mainstreaming the three dimensions ultimately consisted of harnessing synergies and created opportunities that advanced sustainable development through the policies and programmes of the United Nations, as well as averted unintended or conflicting impacts, priorities and outcomes. The present report highlights the role of the sustainable development goals at the core of the post-2015 development agenda and their potential to inject new impetus for embracing integrated approaches to development and to marshal a range of existing policy tools and guidance for collaboration. The report examines accelerated efforts within the inter-agency work of the United Nations system to prepare for the new universal development agenda, building on collective efforts that successfully leveraged acceleration towards the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. The sustainable development goals can also prepare the United Nations for enhanced support at the country level, including through concerted efforts to adapt strategic plans and frameworks, core instruments that drive sustainable development approaches in its work and thinking. The report highlights future reviews of the United Nations system, including through closer bonds with existing evaluation functions, as a critical component of assessing progress against the post -2015 development agenda. Lastly, the report presents conclusions and pro videos a set of recommendations.
