This course introduces the concept of indicators to support policymaking for an inclusive green economy and to illustrate the use of methodologies for selecting and applying indicators. It seeks to contribute to the capacity of countries to choose indicators relevant to their country contexts, particularly in light of the pursuit of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
After completing the course, participants will be able to:
- Describe the role and value of green economy indicator frameworks and their relation to improved green economy policymaking
- Outline green economy indicator frameworks and their linkages with the SDGs
- Analyse the process of prioritizing and selecting indicators and how this can be incorporated into a national green economy monitoring framework
The course has been developed under the Partnership for Action on Green Economy (PAGE), in collaboration with the International Training Centre of the International Labour Organization (ITCILO).
