ASEAN has launched the ASEAN Sustainable Development Goals Indicators Baseline Report 2020
The report aims to establish baseline information on the Sustainable Development Goals’ indicators currently being tracked and measured within the region, at both a national and regional level. Additionally, the report summarises key findings from this data. Finally, the report also presents ways to improve data collection in this area for the region in the future, and discusses what issues and challenges remain herein.
In doing so, the report aims to aid future monitoring, as well as to support policy making at both a national and regional level. The report fits within the United Nations’ (UN) 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, a global call to arms to eliminate poverty, protect the environment, and increase living conditions everywhere.
The report was accompanied by the launch of the Online Database for ASEAN SDG Indicators.
