Practical Implementation of Core Indicators for Sustainable Development Reporting

This report provides insights on the feasibility of the application of UNCTAD's Guidance on Core Indicators for Entity Reporting on Contribution towards Implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (GCI) in two companies in Italy. It offers evidence on the practical implementation of the GCI and discusses challenges in reporting these indicators. Since the adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in 2015, member States of the United Nations have focused on establishing priorities and plans towards its implementation while also monitoring progress. To support this process, a global indicator framework was created, establishing 169 targets and 232 indicators for the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
