SDG indicators for municipalities

Concept notes and papers

Seven partners have jointly developed indicators for mapping the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) for German municipalities. It documents the current state of work - without any claim to finality or general liability. He describes an intermediate level on a high secured level, which now requires the practical testing on site, the discussion and certainly the revision. The choice and definition of SDG indicators presented has been largely based on existing sets of indicators and definitions. Wherever possible, comprehensive indicators are available, but indicators are recommended that are not. The reason: An attempt should be made to map the SDGs in their full width. The justification for limiting the number of finally selected (core) indicators results above all from the fact that the most comprehensible and manageable catalog of indicators should be made available. The result: In the indicator catalog, the same target size of approx. 3 (core) indicators was sought for all SDGs.
