SCP Indicators for Developing Countries - A Guidance Framewok
This document has been developed to provide guidance to policymakers
in developing countries on the development of indicators that
measure progress towards more sustainable patterns of consumption
and production (SCP), a critical means for achieving sustainable
development.
The document proposes a structured framework for understanding
SCP and for developing indicators, crucial for monitoring and
evaluating progress. This framework is then tested against existing
relevant indicators that are being used in twenty developing
countries. Instead of being prescriptive, this document aims to
provide a thinking framework to guide the process of developing
indicators and formulates pertinent questions that could help to focus
the discussion.
This document complements UNEP’s recently published publication
‘Planning for change. Guidelines for National Programmes on Sustainable Consumption and Production.
