Intersectoral Actions and Partnerships can be defined in general or specific ways. Sectors can be described broadly such as the private, voluntary or public sectors. A sector can include a variety of stakeholders including government ministries, their local agencies and authorities, employees and their unions or professional associations, large organizations within the sector such as universities, faculties, hospitals and employers, donor organizations, voluntary organizations representing citizens, clients, families and young people and others. A paper prepared for the UN 2030 goals define “multi-stakeholder partnerships” (MSPs) as “voluntary and collaborative relation-ships between various parties, both public and non-public, in which all participants agree to work together to achieve a common purpose or undertake a specific task and, as mutually agreed, to share risks and responsibilities, resources and benefits”. Inter-sectoral partnerships can be enacted at different levels such as inter-ministry, inter-agency and inter-professional coordination (required) or cooperation (voluntary) as well as whole of government approaches (required by policy decision). The levers which can be used to initiate, maintain, scale up and sustain intersectoral partnerships include whole of government strategies, action plans, consensus statements/declarations and standards and procedures
