Innovazioni e problematiche di misura connesse alla sostenibilità e per il monitoraggio degli SDGs
A cinque anni dall’approvazione dell’Agenda 2030 e dei relativi Target, gli SDGs hanno assunto un peso sempre maggiore nelle politiche sovranazionali e nazionali, basti ricordare gli indirizzi della nuova Commissione UE. Per il nostro Paese è da sottolineare l’importanza della definizione della Strategia per lo Sviluppo Sostenibile a livello Nazionale e Regionale, che preveda anche il monitoraggio delle azioni attivate. Alla luce di questa evoluzione, si ritiene opportuno focalizzare l’attenzione sulla capacità di misurare l’evoluzione dei diversi aspetti connessi agli Obiettivi dell’Agenda 2030. A tal fine l'Istat produce annualmente due aggiornamenti del sistema di indicatori utili al monitoraggio degli SDGs per l'Italia. L’evento, organizzato da ASviS e Istat, è l’occasione per fare il punto sul monitoraggio degli indicatori e per presentare le innovazioni e le problematiche che si sono riscontrate nello sviluppare tali attività.

Apresentação de Giorgio Gualberti, Analista de Cooperação para o Desenvolvimento da Organização para a Cooperação e Desenvolvimento Econômico (OCDE), sobre "Total Official Support for Sustainable Development (TOSSD)", proferida no Seminário Cooperação Internacional: Financiamento para o Desenvolvimento, realizado em 12 e 13 de dezembro de 2018, em Brasília.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. PROCESS TO DEFINE THE GLOBAL SDG INDICATOR
FRAMEWORK
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development will guide the actions
of governments, international agencies, civil society and other
institutions over the next 15 years
After 2 years from its adoption, we are now finally in full
implementation mode, with all the instrument in place for
undertaking policies aimed to accelerate progress and for monitoring
their results
UN Statistical Commission responsible for developing the SDG
monitoring framework
Inter-Agency Expert Group on SDG indicators (IAEG-SDG) to prepare
an initial proposal and oversee this work through to 2030
• 28 countries as members, representing their respective regions.
1/3 of the members rotate every two years (selection by UN
Regional Commissions);
• International organizations only as observers;
=> The process for the selection of the global indicator framework has
been led by countries
5. KEY DECISIONS OF THE 48TH UN STATISTICAL COMMISSION
Agreed with the refined global indicator framework (GIF)
comprising 232 unique indicators, classified in three Tiers,
according to their methodological development and data
availability;
Resolution (A/RES/71/313) on the global indicator framework
was adopted by ECOSOC (7 June) and then by the UN General
Assembly on 6 July
Agreed with the IAEG-SDG’s proposed plan for annual
refinements of the Tier classification and for two comprehensive
reviews of the indicators in 2020 and 2025
Urged the IAEG-SDG to accelerate the methodological
development of Tier III indicators
Recognized the valuable role of custodian agencies in global
reporting and recommended them to increase their capacity
building and technical assistance efforts.
6. THE ROLE OF CUSTODIAN AGENCIES
For each SDG indicator a custodian agency has been
identified to:
Lead methodological development and documentation
of the indicators
Support statistical capacity of countries to generate and
disseminate national data
Collect data from national sources, ensure their
comparability and consistency, and disseminate them
at global level
Contribute to monitor progress at the global, regional
and national levels (e.g. storyline and data for the
annual SDG reports, Agencies’ flagship publications)
7. GLOBAL AND NATIONAL SDG REPORTING
Global indicators are to be used for Global monitoring
Global monitoring should be based, to the extent possible, on
data produced by countries. Therefore the global indicator
framework is a core set of metrics that all countries are invited
to monitor. If national data are not produced, regional and
global indicators may not be produced
National indicators can complement global indicators for the
purpose of national monitoring (Voluntary National Reviews)
Should countries monitor both? Yes. Commitment of countries
to monitor global indicators, in addition to national indicators
(par. 75 of the UN resolution on the 2030 Agenda)
8. ALIGNING NATIONAL & GLOBAL MONITORING FRAMEWORKS
MAIN BENEFITS
Importance for countries of being visible in global and regional
progress reports
Possibility of benchmarking their performance to that of other
countries: guidance for national policy decisions
Possibility for international development partners to identify the
key developmental issues at global level and the most problematic
countries, guiding their investment decisions and allocation of
resources across countries
Importance for countries to align their national monitoring
framework to the global one
Significantly reduction of the reporting burden
Significant reduction of data requirements and capacity
development needs
Increased possibility of receiving technical assistance by international
agencies
9. KEY ISSUES IN GLOBAL REPORTING OF COUNTRY DATA
International Organizations may need to adjust country data when
they are not compliant with global statistical standards, in order to
produce international comparable statistics. This may lead to
discrepancies between international & national estimates of similar
indicators. How to address them?
In the absence of national data, International Organizations may use
non-official data or modelled estimates to compile global indicators.
Can these country data be published?
At national level, there may be different data producers with
overlapping responsibility and the NSO may not have full mandate of
coordinating the National Statistical System. Different country data
may be reported to IOs depending on the national institutions
consulted. Which one should be published?
National Institutions may receive data requests for the same
indicator by different UN agencies, increasing significantly the
reporting burden. Should data be reported directly to UNSD?
10. KEY ISSUES IN GLOBAL REPORTING OF COUNTRY VALUES
The 48th session of the UN Statistical Commission requested the
IAEG-SDGs to “develop guidelines of how custodian agencies and
countries can work together to contribute to the data flows
necessary to have harmonized statistics”. The first draft will be
presented at the next IAEG-SDG on 11-15 November 2017.
The Committee for the Coordination of Statistical Activities (CCSA)
has finalized a set of Principles and practices of global data reporting
and data sharing for the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development,
as a contribution to the IAEG-SDG’s work.
The document outlines a set of principles guiding the SDG work of
IOs in three main areas:
a. production of country estimates;
b. global data reporting; and
c. data sharing among IOs.
11. GUIDING PRINCIPLES:
PRODUCTION OF COUNTRY ESTIMATES FOR SDG INDICATORS
1. Estimates of the SDG indicators produced by IOs shall be based on national data.
2. If IOs need to estimate country data, they commit to:
a) Select statistical methods & data sources exclusively on the basis of
professional statistical standards
b) Consult NSOs on the methodologies used to calculate country estimates
c) Provide an opportunity for NSOs to review country-specific estimates prior
to their release
d) In cases when an agreement cannot be reached, acknowledge the
disagreement and provide relevant explanations when disseminating
country-specific data
e) Document fully and make publicly available the estimation methods and
data sources used
3. Capacity Development: IOs shall provide technical assistance to countries in
areas where data are not available/of low quality, to enable them to produce
their own data
12. GUIDING PRINCIPLES:
GLOBAL DATA REPORTING FOR SDG INDICATORS
1. IOs are committed to reduce national & international reporting
burdens by:
a) Using already existing reporting mechanisms for data flows
from NSS to IOs
b) Promoting the use of appropriate data transmission standards,
such as SDMX, and API services
c) Using National Reporting Platforms on SDG indicators, when
available
d) Coordinating data collection work & establishing efficient data
sharing arrangements among IOs
2. IOs will always copy NSOs in their SDG data requests and provide
them with the list of all national data providers and the data
collection calendar.
13. GUIDING PRINCIPLES:
GLOBAL DATA SHARING FOR SDG INDICATORS
1. Only designated custodian agency will send data requests to
countries. Once collected, data shall be released publically and
shared at no cost with other IOs
2. Estimates of SDG indicators published in databases maintained by
IOs shall be consistent with the UN SDG global database.
3. Estimates of SDG indicators published in databases maintained by
IOs shall be properly documented & sourced, with clear and
comprehensive metadata
15. STATUS OF SDG INDICATORS UNDER FAO CUSTODIANSHIP

16. FAO KEY AREAS OF WORK ON SDG INDICATORS
Regular contribution to global SDG monitoring and
reporting;
Supporting countries and regions in the preparation of
SDG progress reports, assisting in data gap analyses and
identification of national SDG indicator focal points;
Development of new definitions and methodologies for
SDG indicators;
Provision of statistical capacity support and technical
assistance across all 21 SDG indicators under FAO
custodianship;
Communication and advocacy on SDG indicators.
17. FAO’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO GLOBAL REPORTING
FAO contributes to the annual Global SDG Report,
submitting storylines, country data, and regional and
global aggregates for the Tier I and II category indicators
Global SDG Report 2017 fed into the High Level Political
Forum (HLPF) deliberations which this year focused on
Goals 1, 2, 3, 5, 9, 14 and 17
Revamp of FAO flagship publications to report on the FAO-
relevant SDG indicators (e.g. State of Food Security and
Nutrition in the World – SOFI, launched September 15th)
18. FAO SUPPORT TO NATIONAL AND REGIONAL SDG REPORTING
In 2017, 44 countries submitted VNRs to the HLPF, while 48 countries have
already committed to preparing a VNR for 2018. FAO will offer enhanced support
to countries to ensure VNRs draw on available SDG indicators.
Countries are also beginning to prepare national SDG progress reports. UNDG
has issued a set of guidelines for countries reporting on their implementation of
SDGs. FAO will also help countries draw on available SDG indicators, in
collaboration with UNDP.
UN Regional Commissions are similarly preparing regional SDG progress reports.
In April 2017, ECLAC/CEPAL issued its first Annual report on regional progress and
challenges in relation to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
FAO can provide targeted assistance to countries in the form of:
Data gap analyses and country assessments of capacity to report on SDG
indicators (key objective of the FAO’s Regional Office’s TCP in eight countries
in South America)
Review of national SDG indicator mappings and advice on the alignment
with SDG indicators
Supporting the development of the institutional network of national focal
points for SDG indicators
19. FAO’S WORK ON SDG INDICATOR METHODOLOGIES
FAO has submitted workplans for upgrading all remaining Tier III
category SDG indicators at the next IAEG-SDG session on 11-15
November 2017
In some cases, FAO is developing new international definitions, for
example:
Definition of small scale food producers (indicators 2.3.1 and
2.3.2)
Definition of agricultural sustainability (indicators 2.4.1, 15.2.1)
Definition of rural/urban areas (most SDG indicators)
In other cases, FAO is developing methodological proposals and
survey tools for new indicators (e.g. 5.a.1, 5.a.2, 12.3.1, 14.6.1)
These proposed definitions/methods are pilot tested for verifying
their feasibility and are submitted to global consultations for building
international consensus.
20. FAO’S WORK ON SDG INDICATOR METHODOLOGIES
Enlarge the pool of SDG monitoring experts
Catalytic fund established at FAO to support capacity development
efforts:
E-learning courses for SDG indicators
Training-of-Trainers & Regional workshops
Support to national data collections
Producing new survey/tools as global public goods (e.g. AGRIS)
Partnering with other IOs to add short modules to internationally-led
surveys and streamline data reporting (MICS, LSMS, DHS)
Use of new cost-effective methods and new data sources (e.g. remote
sensing)
More on capacity development in the dedicated session on Thursday
21. COMMUNICATION AND ADVOCACY INITIATIVES
