Measuring Distance to the SDG Targets 2019

Chapter 2. Measuring distance to the SDG targets at the country level

Abstract

The OECD Measuring Distance to the SDG Targets Study covers 132 indicators and 105 targets measuring performance on people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnerships. It assesses the strength and weakness of an individual country vis-a-vis the 2030 Agenda, using the UN Global Indicator List. In a series of two-page country fiches, this chapter presents the performance of OECD countries at target and goal level, as well as data coverage across goals for each country.

The study includes country-level data of all OECD Members except the United States.

The statistical data for Israel are supplied by and under the responsibility of the relevant Israeli authorities. The use of such data by the OECD is without prejudice to the status of the Golan Heights, East Jerusalem and Israeli settlements in the West Bank under the terms of international law.
