The 2030 Agenda is a plan of action for people, planet, and prosperity, and its objective is to strengthen universal peace in larger freedom. The Agenda states that the eradication of poverty in all its forms and dimensions, including extreme poverty, is the greatest challenge facing the world and is an indispensable requirement for sustainable development.

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets demonstrate the scale and ambition of this new universal Agenda. They seek to further the Millennium Development Goals and finish what these did not achieve. They are integrated and indivisible, and they balance the three dimensions of sustainable development: the economic, social, and environmental. The goals and targets will stimulate action over the next fifteen years in areas of critical importance for humanity and the planet:
  1. People: to end poverty and hunger, in all their forms and dimensions, and to ensure that all human beings can fulfill their potential in dignity and equality and in a healthy environment.
  2. Planet: to protect the planet through sustainable consumption and production, sustainably managing its natural resources and taking urgent action on climate change, so that it can support the needs of the present and future generations.
  3. Prosperity: to ensure that all human beings can enjoy prosperous and fulfilling lives and that economic, social, and technological progress occurs in harmony with nature.
  4. Peace: to foster peaceful, just, and inclusive societies that are free from fear and violence. There can be no sustainable development without peace and no peace without sustainable development.
  5. Partnership: to mobilize the means required to implement this Agenda through a revitalized Global Partnership for Sustainable Development, based on a spirit of strengthened global solidarity, focused in particular on the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable and with the participation of all countries, all stakeholders, and all people.

In accordance with the provisions of Supreme Decree No. 49 of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Chile of May 2016 and Supreme Decree No. 67 of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, published in November 2019, which modify the public institutional framework for the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in Chile, the National Statistics Institute (INE) forms part of the National Council for the Implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in its role as Technical Advisor to the Council and the Technical Secretariat.

In 2016, the Sectoral Technical Group on Indicators (Grupo Técnico Sectorial de Indicadores, or GTI) was created for the purpose of compiling statistical information from the data provided by the institutions that make up the National Network for the 2030 Agenda. With this data, progress of the indicators can be monitored by the GTI, of which INE is a member.

In its role as Technical Advisor, INE reports on the international and United Nations position, the international methodology established for the construction of the indicators, the monitoring of the Agenda, and the comparison of Chile’s experiences with those of other countries. INE also provides guidance on the preparation of the Voluntary National Review.

With the prior approval of the Council of Ministers, INE formally assumed the coordination of the GTI in January 2022. Two workstreams were agreed upon within the framework of the GTI. The first workstream is the annual reporting and updating of SDG indicators, with a special emphasis on the delivery of data to the Technical Secretariat for the preparation of follow-up reports such as the Voluntary National Review. The second workstream will seek to advance in the definition of a survey program for pending official indicators and any additional indicators (a task to be carried out jointly with the institutions of the National Network for the 2030 Agenda) and to create the necessary capacities for this purpose.

The United Nations Statistical Commission (UNSC) created the Inter-Agency Expert Group on Sustainable Development Goal Indicators (IAEG-SDG) to monitor and review indicators of the 2030 Agenda. Among the functions of the IAEG-SDG is to develop a framework of indicators for global monitoring and review of goals and targets while taking into account the efforts of countries and organizations, including regional and international agencies, academia, and civil society.

For more information on this working group, see https://unstats.un.org/sdgs/iaeg-sdgs/


In addition, the Commission created the High Level Group on Partnership, Coordination, and Capacity-Building in Statistics for the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (HLG-PCCB), which it mandated to provide strategic leadership for the SDG implementation process with regard to statistical monitoring and reporting within the framework of the Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics and to promote national ownership of and fostering capacity building and coordination for the follow-up and review system, ensuring consistency between global monitoring and reporting, among other functions.

For more information on this working group, see https://unstats.un.org/sdgs/hlg


To ensure national ownership, both groups have determined that National Statistical Offices should play a leading role in the development, implementation, and monitoring of the SDG indicator framework at the global, regional, and national levels.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many indicators make up the global SDG monitoring framework?

The SDG global indicator framework consists of 231 unique indicators. The framework was developed by the Inter-Agency and Expert Group on SDG Indicators (IAEG-SDG) and was agreed upon at the 48th session of the United Nations Statistical Commission in March 2017. The global indicator framework was subsequently adopted by the General Assembly on 6 July 2017 and is contained in Resolution A/RES/71/313, which was adopted by the General Assembly on Work of the Statistical Commission pertaining to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. For more information on the list of indicators, see https://unstats.un.org/sdgs/indicators/indicators-list

Do the SDG indicators use any kind of classification?

To facilitate the implementation of SDG indicators, an international classification regarding the methodology for measuring the indicators was agreed upon within the framework of the Inter-Agency Expert Group on Sustainable Development Goal Indicators, IAEG-SDG. The classification is divided into three tiers as follows:

Tier 1: The indicator is conceptually clear, has an internationally established methodology, and standards are available. In addition, data are regularly produced by countries for at least 50 per cent of countries and of the population in every region where the indicator is relevant.

Tier 2: The indicator is conceptually clear, has an internationally established methodology, and standards are available, but data are not regularly produced by countries.

Tier 3: No internationally established methodology or standards are yet available for the indicator, but methodology and standards are being (or will be) developed or tested.

For more information on the classification of each indicator, see https://unstats.un.org/sdgs/iaeg-sdgs/tier-classification

Where can I find the internationally approved calculation methodology for each SDG indicator?

The internationally approved methodologies are available in the metadata repository at https://unstats.un.org/sdgs/metadata This page contains information on the most recent methodologies provided by the United Nations System and specialized international organizations. It should be noted that this information is periodically reviewed and updated by the Inter-Agency Expert Group on Sustainable Development Goal Indicators, IAEG-SDG.
