HI everyone
Thanks to d-portal, I noticed that there are 25,742 activities that have an SDG target or goal at the tag
element
d-portal also shows me that these activities are provided by 14 IATI publishers:
And - you guessed it - d-portal then lets me see who these are:
So - it’s good to see some usage.
However, does this match the user needs that drove the initial need to produce focused guidance on SDGs?
The number of publishers seem particularly low, vis-a-vis those that engaged in that whole process.
Should we expect more? Has anyone attempted to use this data? What can it tell us?
Look forward to any thoughts or insights!
There are more UN agencies publishing SDG data than show up in the d-portal search. However, they’re doing so via the sector element and not duplicating this into the tag element.
It would interesting to hear the methodology being used by these UN agencies for assigning percentages, or indeed how this data is being used. At the time of creating the SDG guidance, it was recognised that not every organisation could assign a percentage and hence the use of tag was recommended.
