SDG Target #17.14

SDG #17 is to “Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development”

Within SDG #17 are 19 targets, of which we here focus on Target 17.14:

Enhance policy coherence for sustainable development

Target 17.14 has one indicator:

  • Indicator 17.14.1: Number of countries with mechanisms in place to enhance policy coherence of sustainable development

The policy coherence spoken of is an effort to ensure all parts of a government are working toward sustainable development.

Few countries have reported data on this. But among those who have, those with a high degree of mechanisms of ensuring such coherence include Colombia and Qatar, each with a perfect score.
