This book offers a comprehensive practitioner's guide to
negotiating at the United Nations. Although much of the content can
be applied broadly, the guide focuses on navigating multilateral
negotiations at the UN. The book is a tool to help new UN
negotiators, explaining basic negotiation concepts and offering
insight into the complexities of the UN system. It also offers a
playbook for cooperation for negotiators at any level, exploring
the dynamics of relationships and alliances, the art of chairing a
negotiation, and the importance of balancing the power asymmetries
present in any multilateral discussion. The book proposes
improvements to the UN negotiation process and looks at the impact
of information technologies on negotiation dynamics; it also shares
stories from women UN delegates, illustrating what it means to be a
female negotiator at the UN. This book is an exploration of the
power of the individual in any negotiation, and of the
responsibility all negotiators have in wielding that power to speak
for a better world. This book will be of much interest to students
of diplomacy, global governance, foreign policy, and International
Relations, as well as practitioners and policymakers.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a universal set of
seventeen goals and 169 targets, with accompanying indicators,
which were agreed by UN member states to frame their policy agendas
for the fifteen-year period from 2015 to 2030. Written by three
authors who have been engaged in the development of the SDGs from
the beginning, this book offers an insider view of the process and
a unique entry into what will be seen as one of the most
significant negotiations and global policy agendas of the
twenty-first century. The book reviews how the SDGs were developed,
what happened in key meetings and how this transformational agenda,
which took more than three years to negotiate, came together in
September 2015. It dissects and analyzes the meetings,
organizations and individuals that played key roles in their
development. It provides fascinating insights into the subtleties
and challenges of high-level negotiation processes of governments
and stakeholders, and into how the SDGs were debated, formulated
and agreed. It is essential reading for all interested in the UN,
sustainable development and the future of the planet and humankind.
