evento on line Roma, 30 settembre 2020 Innovazioni e problematiche di misura connesse alla sostenibilità e per il monitoraggio degli SDGs A cinque anni dall’approvazione dell’Agenda 2030 e dei relativi Target, gli SDGs hanno assunto un peso sempre maggiore nelle politiche sovranazionali e nazionali, basti ricordare gli indirizzi della nuova Commissione UE. Per il nostro Paese è da sottolineare l’importanza della definizione della Strategia per lo Sviluppo Sostenibile a livello Nazionale e Regionale, che preveda anche il monitoraggio delle azioni attivate. Alla luce di questa evoluzione, si ritiene opportuno focalizzare l’attenzione sulla capacità di misurare l’evoluzione dei diversi aspetti connessi agli Obiettivi dell’Agenda 2030. A tal fine l'Istat produce annualmente due aggiornamenti del sistema di indicatori utili al monitoraggio degli SDGs per l'Italia. L’evento, organizzato da ASviS e Istat, è l’occasione per fare il punto sul monitoraggio degli indicatori e per presentare le innovazioni e le problematiche che si sono riscontrate nello sviluppare tali attività.

2. Key messages from the SDG Report 2020
One-third of the way
into the SDG journey,
our global efforts were
coming up short to
deliver on the 2030
Agenda.
Before the pandemic COVID-19 impacts
COVID-19 abruptly
disrupted implementation
efforts towards many of
the SDGs and, in some
areas, turned back years
of progress.

3. COVID-19 could push millions into hunger and extreme poverty

4. Health and education outcomes are adversely affected

5. The pandemic is taking a toll on women and girls worldwide---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Improving access to water, sanitation and hygiene services is urgently needed

6. COVID-19 has caused the worst economic fallout in generations

7. COVID-19 is affecting vulnerable people the most

8. Climate change and environmental deterioration continue unabated

9. 2020
By the end of 2020, 21 of
the 169 SDG targets will
mature. 12 are linked to
the UN CBD Aichi
Biodiversity Targets
The world is falling short on most of the 2020 targets

10. Investing in data is critical to build back better and
to accelerate implementation of the SDGs
Serious data gaps remain in assessing progress towards the SDGs

11. The pandemic has greatly impacted statistical operations
Short-term statistical production, which heavily relies on traditional face-to-face methods,
continues to be affected

12. Increased funding is needed to face the new challenges
Low and lower middle-income countries are impacted the most

13. New directions of the IAEG-SDGs
Focus on the implementation of the indicator framework:
• Data disaggregation
• Integration of geospatial and SDG data and statistics
• Sharing experiences and best practices on monitoring the SDGs, including on
national SDG platforms and dashboards
• Encouraging data innovations and use of new data sources for SDG indicators
• Reviewing and making recommendations on capacity building for SDGs

14. IAEG-SDGs work on data disaggregation
• Compilation of existing guidelines and
methodologies on data disaggregation
• Preparation of Handbook on data
disaggregation for SDGs
• Task Force on Small Area Estimation (joint with ISWGHS)
• Guidance on applying geospatial information for the production of indicators
and for data disaggregation (Working Group on Geospatial Information)

15. Sharing experiences and best practices on monitoring the SDGs
• National SDG platforms and dashboards
• SDG national implementation, reporting and monitoring
• Voluntary National Reviews

16. Encouraging data innovations and data integration
• Support countries in the use of innovative
sources, technologies and methods for the
streamlined production and dissemination
of better, more timely and disaggregated
data for sustainable development
Collaborative on
Administrative
Data
• Strengthen the quality and increase the use
of administrative data for statistical
purposes
• Provide the space for national and
international reporting and the integration
and analysis of SDG data and statistics across
a system of federated data hubs
The Federated
Information System
for the SDGs
