multilateral diplomacy --- In my opinion, one of the core functions of multilateral diplomacy is to build collectively a common narrative of global affairs. One of the benefits of the SDGs narrative is to have a common understanding of the current global challenges and a common language to describe the collective (international and regional) and the "individual" (country/local) action needed to achieve the agreed goals.
