Expanding Human Freedoms in Balance with the Planet

All too often, development reports focus only on nature or people. This is a false dichotomy in the Anthropocene – the Age of Humans. The 2020 Human Development Report (HDR2020) launching on 15 December, suggests a way forward for the future of human development in balance with the planet. In this virtual dialogue, UN Bonn, together with the City of Bonn will present and discuss the key findings of the HDR 2020. It will bring together UN agencies, organizations and interested individuals in Bonn and around.
