This report is the first time the UK has done a voluntary review and is a good time to reflect on the impact the goals have had and what more can be done.
The UK’s Voluntary National Review of the Sustainable Development Goals has been published, and features an assessment of how well the UK has done so far in tackling the Sustainable Development Goals.
The Goals are part of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. All United Nations Member States are expected, at least once, to review national progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals and present the report to the United Nations High Level Political Forum. This process is called a Voluntary National Review. This report is the first time the UK has done a voluntary review and is a good time to reflect on the impact the goals have had and what more can be done.
The 17 Goals are subdivided into 244 indicators which are reported against as a means of measuring the uptake of the goals in society. The UK reported against 74% of these indicators which is one of the highest proportions in the world and shows that, although work needs done, we are progressing well against the 2030 agenda.
The full report can be found below, but one interesting finding was the Public Sector in the UK has the highest engagement with the goals of any UK sector which is due, in part, to the high uptake of the goals amongst the FHE sector.
