Item 15 of the agenda
Eurostat's coverage of the global SDG indicators
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.
RECOMMENDATION FOR ACTION
The ESS Committee is invited to take note of Eurostat's current coverage of the sustainable
development goals (SDG) indicators for global monitoring and of the planned developments at the
global and the EU level.
2.
BACKGROUND AND BRIEF HISTORY
On 11 March 2016 the UN Statistical Commission (UNSC) agreed on a list of 241 indicators as a
practical starting point to monitor at global level the 17 SDGs of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable
development. This list has been developed by an Inter-agency Expert Group on SDG indicators
(IAEG-SDG), mandated by the UNSC in March 2015. The IAEG-SDG has classified the indicators
in
three tiers according to their methodological development and data availability at global level.
Eurostat has carried out an internal review to assess coverage of the global SDG indicators. The
detailed analysis can be found in Annex 1. As a summary, Eurostat currently covers about one third
of the 241 indicators in the global list. However, about one fourth of the global indicators are not of
statistical nature and are out of scope of official statistics, while an additional 20% are of limited
relevance in an EU context (although some may be relevant for specific areas or sub-populations of
a few EU Member States). As a result, 'only' 47 of the global indicators which are of a statistical
nature and potentially relevant for the EU are not covered by Eurostat, which amounts to 20% of the
total. It must however be considered that for almost half of these 47 indicators, there is no
methodology agreed at global level yet (these indicators are classified as tier 3 by the IAEG-SDGs),
and that only for four of these 47 indicators, data are widely available (these are tier 1 indicators
according to the IAEG-SDGs). On the other hand, Eurostat already covers 20 tier 3 indicators, for
which a methodology is not yet agreed at global level while a methodology exists for the EU.
Individual countries, as well as other international institutions, have carried out similar exercises,
and it may be useful to compare the results and discuss possible implications.
3.
POLICY CONTEXT
The 2030 agenda for sustainable development foresees monitoring at different levels: global,
regional (in the sense of the UN regions - for Europe the relevant region is UNECE) and national.
The annual High-Level Political Forum is the body mandated to follow up and review the global
implementation of the SDGs. Countries and international organisations contribute with voluntary
reports, to which NSIs normally contribute (e.g. by providing a statistical annex). The political
process at the UNECE level is not yet defined. At national level, EU Member States have defined or
are defining national strategies to implement the SDGs and are setting up appropriate monitoring
mechanisms, which are country-specific.
With regard to the EU, the 2016 Commission work programme includes an initiative on "Next steps
for a sustainable European future". A Commission communication on that initiative is scheduled for
22 November. The Communication will show the significance of the SDGs for Europe and explain
how the EU contributes to reaching them. The Communication is expected to be short and to link to
the 10 priorities of the European Commission. It will be accompanied by a staff working document
which gives an overview of key existing European actions and policies in relation to the 17 goals.
Eurostat expects to receive from the Communication a mandate to monitor sustainable development
in the EU.

CONSEQUENCES FOR NATIONAL STATISTICAL INSTITUTES
For the global monitoring, each indicator is attributed to a 'custodian' agency, normally belonging to
the UN system (e.g. FAO, UNEP, ILO, etc.). Reporting from individual countries to the UN
agencies is organised in a decentralised way. Data flows for several indicators are already
established, and often do not involve the national statistical institutes. In this context, Eurostat has
no role to play as a coordinator of data flows from the EU countries to the UN system.
Eurostat however participates to the Working Group on SDMX reporting to the IAEG-SDGs. This
group is mandated to define appropriate SDMX structures for the transmission of the global
indicators and to develop, pilot, and establish data exchange mechanisms for SDGs data. This
group, which also includes France (INSEE), met for the first time in Mexico on 21 October.
Eurostat also participates to the Working Group on geospatial information, also reporting to the
IAEG-SDGs.
Regarding the EU monitoring, Eurostat foresees to use existing indicators or indicators which can
be derived from existing statistics. At this stage it is not foreseen to establish new data collections.
5.
OUTSTANDING ISSUES
Concerning the global indicators, the custodian agencies are mandated to develop a methodology
for the tier 3 indicators. For 20 indicators a methodology and definition already exists at the EU
level, and ideally the global methodology and definition should align to that. The EU countries and
Eurostat should engage themselves especially in the work streams to develop tier 3 indicators which
already exist in the EU (see highlighted indicators in annex 2). Eurostat and the EU countries may
also consider to already publish those indicators in the context of SDGs, as a way to set the trend.
The establishment of a monitoring mechanism at the EU level does not pose any outstanding issues
for the EU Member States.
6.
RISK ASSESSMENT
For the global indicators, different definitions or methodologies from the ones already in use within
the ESS may result in additional burden for the NSIs and may create communication issues (due to
similar but different indicators used at global and national level).
No specific risk is identified for the EU Member States in relation to the establishment of a
monitoring mechanism at the EU level.
7.
NEXT STEPS
At global level, work is ongoing to enhance the list of 241 indicators. At its 4th meeting in Geneva
on 15-18 November 2016, the IAEG-SDGs will, among other things, discuss the necessary
refinements to the global indicators and review the plans of the custodian agencies to develop the
tier 3 indicators. A discussion on data flows will also take place.
At the EU level Eurostat is planning to develop a dedicated EU-SDG indicator set. This includes the
definition of an indicator framework consisting of a thematic structure and a typology of indicators,
to ensure a balanced monitoring of the 17 SDGs. Eurostat plans to consult in due time the ESS NSIs
at technical level. The analysis presented here might provide useful input for this work.

ANNEX 1 - EUROSTAT'S COVERAGE OF THE GLOBAL SDG INDICATORS
1 Global SDG indicators and their availability
On 11 March 2016 the UN Statistical Commission (UNSC) agreed on a list of 241 indicators1 as a
practical starting point to monitor at
global level the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) and
the 169 related targets of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development. This list has been
developed by an Inter-agency ad Expert Group on SDG indicators (IAEG-SDG)2, mandated by the
UNSC one year before.
Not all the global indicators are already fully available. According to their methodological
development and data availability
at global level the indicators are classified in three tiers:
Tier 1: Indicator conceptually clear, established methodology and standards available and
data regularly produced by countries.
Tier 2: Indicator conceptually clear, established methodology and standards available but
data are not regularly produced by countries.
Tier 3: Indicator for which there are no established methodology and standards or
methodology/standards are being developed/tested.
Figure 1: Draft tier classification of global SDG indicators as of 21 September 2016
The IAEG-SDG is responsible for the classification, with input from thematic international
organisations, mostly UN agencies.
The tier classification is nearly but not yet fully finalised3. Figure 1 shows the situation on 21
September 2016. At that moment
82 indicators out of 241 (34%) are considered as tier 1,
63
(26%) as tier 2 and
91 (38%) as tier 3.
5 indicators (2%) have multiple classifications, as they are
1 The SDG global indicator list includes 230 different indicators, as nine are used to measure two or three targets.
2 Information about the composition and the activities of this group is available
at: http://unstats.un.org/sdgs/iaeg-
sdgs/.

Work is needed to fully develop the global indicator list. For this purpose, custodian agencies4 have
been appointed for the individual indicators. The custodians are responsible for data collection and
for the necessary methodological developments of indicators allocated to them. The statistical
community, academia as well as other stakeholders are expected to contribute to the development of
the tier 3 indicators.
A compilation of metadata provided by the custodians to the UNSD can be
found on the web site of the IAEG-SDG and is updated continuously. These inputs will also be
taken into account for the final tier classification.
A first globa
l SDG report, containing data on 51 indicators, was produced and published by the UN
in July 2016. The report is based on a master set of data prepared by UN Department of Economic
and Social Affairs (DESA) with inputs from a large number of international and regional
organisations. The presentation of the report was accompanied by the launch of a
Global SDG
Indicators Database, which includes country level data and global and regional aggregates, as far as
available.
4 Most of the custodian agencies are part of the UN system such as WHO (about 26 indicators), UNEP (about 26), FAO
(about 20), ILO (about 13) or the World Bank (about 23), but also other international institution such as OECD (about
16 indicators) are allocated as custodian agencies.

2 Eurostat's coverage of global SDG indicators
2.1 Overview on Eurostat’s review
Eurostat carried out an in-depth review to identify the global SDG indicators which can already be
calculated with available data and those potentially requiring further development. Eurostat also
assessed the relevance of the global SDG indicators in the European context.
Figure 2: Eurostat’s coverage of global SDG indicators
This review found that 83 indicators, i.e. 34% of the total, are potentially available as they may be
calculated with existing European statistics (see Figure 2). These include 26 tier 2 and 20 tier 3
indicators, as well as one indicator with multiple ratings, which Eurostat could compute with
already available data, although sometimes with some approximation. As a matter of fact, different
degrees of data availability exist, as explained in secti
on 2.2. At first look Eurostat's coverage of the
global SDG indicators may seem limited. However, 64 of the global SDG indicators (i.e. 26%) can
be considered as out of scope of official statistics5 and that a further 47 indicators (i.e. 20%) are not
relevant in the EU context. As a result, at present "only" 47 indicators (i.e. 20%) which are of
statistical nature and potentially relevant for the EU are not covered by Eurostat. It must be noted
however that 23 out of the 47 indicators in this groups are tier 3 and therefore require work at global
level, and that only 4 (2% of the total global indicators) are tier 1.
Details on indicators out of scope of official statistics are provided in section
2.3. Secti
on 2.4
provides additional information on indicators not relevant in the EU context, while secti
on 2.5
addresses indicators which are of statistical nature and potentially relevant for the EU.
Table 2 provides a summary of Eurostat’s coverage of global SDG indicators by goal. Detailed
information on the individual indicators can be found in Annex 2.
5 Although Eurostat's Sustainable Development Indicator set includes some indicators on 'official development
assistance' (ODA), for this analysis all ODA indicators are considered as out of scope of official statistics.

2.2 Global indicators available at Eurostat
Data for
83 global SDG indicators (34%) are currently potentially available in Eurostat’s database.
However, different degrees of availability should be distinguished:
Identical: Currently available data allow calculating 23 global SDG indicators exactly according to
the specifications in the metadata compiled by the custodian agencies. Examples are indicator 8.1.1
"Annual growth rate of real GDP per capita" or indicator 15.1.1 "Forest area as a proportion of total
land area".
Indicators in this group are of course only tier 1 or tier 2, as tier 3 indicators are not yet precisely
defined.
Eurostat unit E2
6
ESSC 2016/31/15 EN – 20 October 2016
Similar: For 39 global SDG indicators data are available, although with some deviation from the
exact specification (sometimes not fully developed). For example, regarding indicator 17.6.2 "Fixed
Internet broadband subscriptions per 100 inhabitants, by speed", Eurostat collects data related to
households and not to individuals; for indicator 4.3.1 "Participation rate of youth and adults in
formal and non-formal education and training in the previous 12 months, by sex" Eurostat's
information on
lifelong learning refers to activities carried out in a 4-week reference period instead
of 12 months.
Partial: 21 global SDG indicators are not fully specified or require more than one data set, not all
covered by Eurostat's data. For example, for indicator 11.5.1 "Number of deaths, missing persons
and persons affected by disaster per 100,000 people" data are available for number of deaths but not
for missing persons and persons affected; for indicator 1.4.1 "Proportion of population living in
households with access to basic services" Eurostat's data coverage depends on definition of "basic
services", which is not yet available.
The availability of data for SDG indicators differs between the 17 goals (see table 2 above), but is
particular high for goal 8 on economy and labour and for goal 9 on infrastructure and innovation.
It must be noted that this analysis does not consider the time dimension (length of time series and
frequency of data collection) and the geographical coverage (number of reporting EU Member
States). These aspects depend in most cases on the legal requirements. Data collected on a voluntary
basis in general have a lower time and geographical coverage than statistics established by EU
legislation.
Table 2 shows the details of data availability by goal while information on the availability of each
indicator is available in Table 3 in the annex.
2.3 SDG indicators out of scope of official statistics
A number of global SDG indicators are, in Eurostat’s understanding, outside the scope of official
statistics. The following criteria were applied to classify global SDG indicators as out of scope:
Indicator is not subject to statistical methods and approaches. Examples are indicator 5.1.1
"Whether or not legal frameworks are in place to promote, enforce and monitor equality and
non‑ discrimination on the basis of sex"; indicator 10.a.1 "Proportion of tariff lines applied
to imports from least developed countries and developing countries with zero-tariff" or
indicator 17.12.1 "Average tariffs faced by developing countries, least developed countries
and small island developing States".
Indicator addresses financial assistance in favour of third countries, as for instance
indicator 4.b.1 "Volume of official development assistance flows for scholarships by sector
and type of study" or indicator 17.7.1 "Total amount of approved funding for developing
countries to promote the development, transfer, dissemination and diffusion of
environmentally sound technologies".
According to the criteria above,
64 global SDG indicators (26%) are considered as out of scope.
The share of indicators out of scope is particular high for Goal 17 on global partnership and for
Goal 13 on climate change, both with a strong focus on means of implementation.
The full list of global SDG indicators classified as out of scope according to these criteria can be
found in the annex.
Eurostat unit E2
7
ESSC 2016/31/15 EN – 20 October 2016
2.4 Indicators not relevant in the EU context
47 global indicators (20% of total) de facto have limited or no relevance for developed countries,
as they refer to issues more pertinent to developing countries.
Examples are indicator 3.7.1 "Proportion of women of reproductive age (aged 15-49 years) who
have their need for family planning satisfied with modern methods" or indicator 9.1.1 "Proportion
of the rural population who live within 2 km of an all-season road". While these indicators may be
of some relevance for a few individual EU Member States, Eurostat assumes that they do not
require a full EU coverage.
2.5 Not available indicators potentially relevant in the EU context
Finally,
47 global SDG indicators (20%) for which no data are available at Eurostat can be
considered as pertinent in the European context. As noted above, these are to a large extent tier 2
and tier 3 indicators and are related in particular the topics of water management (Goal 6, e.g. tier 3
indicator 6.4.1 Change in water-use efficiency over time), the ecosystem of oceans (Goal 14, e.g.
indicator 14.3.1 Average marine acidity (pH) measured at agreed suite of representative sampling
stations) and the threat of well-being by societal violence (Goal 16, e.g. indicator 16.1.4 Proportion
of population that feel safe walking alone around the area they live) as shown in the table 2 above.
3 Conclusions and outlook on further developing work
On the whole, Eurostat's data cover about one third of the 241 global SDG indicators. However,
almost half of the global SDG indicators are either out of scope of official statistics or of low or no
pertinence in an EU context. Actual potential data gaps thus concern 20 percent of the indicators,
and many of those still need further methodological development at global level.
At global level, methodological work will focus on the tier 3 indicators, which currently include
about one third of the global SDG indicators. Although the tier classification has not yet been
finalised, we can assume that about half of these indicators are either out of scope or not pertinent at
EU level.
On the other hand, particular attention should be paid to the methodological work on the tier 3
indicators for which data are available at Eurostat. This concerns currently 20 global SDG
indicators covering a rather diverse range of topics. Eurostat and the EU countries should be
actively involved in the work streams coordinated by the custodian agencies (some already
ongoing) to ensure consistency with existing methodology at EU level.
From an EU perspective, the actual relevance of the global SDG indicators depends not only on the
fact that they refer to phenomena which are important in our region, but also on the actual policy
specification at EU level. Data gaps for SDG targets with strong links to EU policies and initiatives
such as Europe 2020, the 10 Commission priorities, circular economy etc. are the most important.
In the mid and long-term the primary solution to fill data gaps for targets closely related to EU
policies is of course to enhance statistical production and methodology. In the short term, however,
the two main options, not mutually exclusive, are:
Eurostat unit E2
8
ESSC 2016/31/15 EN – 20 October 2016
Either to select alternative indicators already available at EU level, with priority given to
indicators stemming from established policy indicator sets such as the EU SDI set, Europe
2020 indicators, the Resource Efficiency Scoreboard etc.;
and/or to use data from existing external (e.g. EEA etc.) and/or non-official sources,
provided that methodology is documented, regular updates are assured and responsibilities
between Eurostat and external providers are clarified.
As Eurostat expects to be mandated to monitor progress towards the SDG implementation at EU
level, plans are being made to develop a dedicated EU-SDG indicator set. The analysis presented
here of Eurostat's coverage of the global SDG indicators provides useful input for this work.
In the process of indicator selection, data availability will be an important criterion. The length of
the time series, the frequency of data collection and the geographical coverage are important aspects
to also take into account. The EU-SDG indicator set will therefore be based on existing indicators,
complemented with new indicators according to the political demand at the EU level. The definition
of an indicator framework consisting of a thematic structure and a typology of indicators is also
needed to ensure a balanced monitoring of the 17 SDGs with available SDG indicators.
