  1. Policy Group on Statistical Cooperation15-16 October 2015, Montenegro Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) indicators

  2. Outline • Post 2015 agenda and SDGs • Monitoring framework and indicators • Role of Eurostat • Summary • Discussion questions

  3. Post 2015 agenda and SDGs • 2012: Rio+20 conferencelaunchprocess to developSDGs • Development policy buildingonMDGs • Defined process and preparations • Political process • SDGs and their corresponding targets prepared for adoption in the UN Sustainable Development summit in September 2015

  4. Post 2015 agenda and SDGs • The outcome document for September 2015 summit describes considerations regarding SDG indicators and statistics finalised: • set of global indicators - will be complemented by indicators at the regional and national levels • call for a simple and robust framework addressing all SDGs and targets • UNSC mandated to develop indicator framework to measure progress towards the SDGs

  5. Monitoring framework and indicators • 46th UNSC set a roadmap and bodies to prepare a global monitoring framework • Inter-agency expert-group (IAEG-SDGs) – the SDG indicators • High level group (HLG): The monitoring processes • IAEG-SDGs meetings in June (first list including priority indicators) and October 2015 (fine-tune list)

  6. Monitoring framework and indicators-timeline • 1st consultation on list of indicators in August/September 2015 - review • 2nd consultation in October 2015 - review • List of indicators and monitoring framework to be presented and approved in UNSC 2016 • To be formally adopted by ECOSOC and UN general assembly in 2016

  7. Monitoring framework and indicators – current work • Indicators assessed according to relevance, suitability and availability • Indicators classified in three tiers • An established methodology exists and data are already widely available. • A methodology has been established but for which data are not easily available. • An internationally agreed methodology has not yet been developed.

  8. Monitoring framework and indicators – current work • Consultations and reviews • Discussion streams: Conceptual framework & identifying inter-linkages among indicators • Disaggregation: Important both from development policy and statistical perspectives but also challenging • Different levels of monitoring • Global: List of indicators prepared by IAEG-SDGs • Regional: Estat coordinating with UNECE • National • Conceptual framework to be discussed

  9. Monitoring framework and indicators – current work • 17 overall goals • 169 targets • 1-2 indicators per target (with a few exceptions) • At the time of the first open consultation about 205 suggested indicators (of a total of 365) • Multi-purpose indicators

  10. Monitoring framework and indicators – example SDG 1

  11. Monitoring framework and indicators – example SDG 1

  12. Monitoring framework and indicators – important priorities • Based on statistical considerations and statistical data preferred • First list with future adaptations - flexibility • Limited number of global indicators • National ownership and capacity building • Inter-linkages and overlap • Indicators should directly correspond to the goals and targets, and their level of ambition, not undermine or interpret the targets, should be exhaustive and maintain the balance in the targets and should not introduce any new issues

  13. Role of Eurostat • Observer in friends of the chair group • Observer in the IAAG-SDGs • Methodological input • Support and input to work and discussion streams • Consultations in the ESS • Future monitoring in the ESS

  14. Summary observations • Focus on availability and inter-linkages to limit number of targets and indicators • Scope of SDGs provides future data requirements and need for statistical capacity building – data needs go beyond current availability • Developed in complex and multi-stakeholder environment • Consider SDGs in context of improving Official Statistics and exploring new ways of providing statistical data

  15. Discussion questions 1. How do the enlargement countries consider the process of developing the SDG monitoring framework and how are the NSIs in the enlargement countries involved? 2. How do the NSIs consider the data requirements in the SDGs monitoring framework and the need for capacity building? 3. Which opportunities and challenges does the SDGs monitoring bring to NSIs and national administrations in the context of providing data for SDG indicators? And in the context of future ways of providing/producing Official Statistics?
