Data & Indicator Dashboards

Sustainable Development Goals

The SDG Dashboard Tool serves as decision support tool for municipal planners to gather data on where their municipalities stand with regard to sustainable development. In SARVA 3.0 each SDG indicator provides a measure of adaptive capacity of districts and local municipalities to respond to global change hazards. We currently have data that covers 15 out of the 17 goals.
