ESCAP has developed the “National SDG Tracker” to enable countries to use their own data, indicators and targets and assess their progress towards the SDGs. This manual is developed as a step-by-step guide for users of the National SDG Tracker in finalizing their national indicator set, preparing their data on the Tracker and producing progress assessments. The main audience are government officials responsible for implementation and monitoring of the SDGs (SDG focal points in national statistical systems, planning organizations, and SDG implementing bodies). The tool also aims to support UN country teams, in particular UN resident coordinator offices, in their efforts in supporting national SDG implementation and follow and review practices.
