SDG Pulse 2022
UNCTAD Takes the Pulse of the SDGs
Abstract
SDG pulse provides quantitative assessments of progress with the 2030 Agenda through both a selection of official SDG indicators as well as complementary data and statistics. It also presents recent conceptual and methodological developments regarding SDG indicators of which UNCTAD is the custodian. It has become UNCTAD’s reference publication in mapping the organization’s work with the SDGs, not only from an analytical perspective but also in terms of technical cooperation and capacity development. This year’s edition particularly focuses on the “two-speed recovery” from the pandemic which manifests through trade, finance and investment, investigates the issue of inclusive growth with UNCTAD’s new composite indices and provides some prospects on economic and social repercussions of the war in Ukraine.
