In June-August 2016 LPW experts (Dr.Olena Lazorenko, Prof. Olga Gomilko and Mrs.Valentina Legkha) took part in the National Consultations launched by the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine & UNDP on the localization of the Ukrainian policy in the framework of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Dr. Olena Lazorenko  took part the round table in the Ministry of the Social Policy of Ukraine together with UN Women and  UNFPA (29 April 2016), and written the proposal to final comment (dated 6 of May 2016, in Ukrainian). She recommended to establish an National Observatory of SDGs to research and monitoring of the national progress in SDGs on joint base of academy (for example, at the Institute of Philosophy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine), women NGOs and international organizations . Unfortunately, LPW don`t have any feedback concern this idea from organizers. That is why LPW is currently seeking financial source for this advocacy activity.
