Description
The SDGs provide a comprehensive framework of goals and targets that challenge all countries, organizations, and investors to measure their impact on people and the planet. A growing range of tools, standards, and initiatives to support investors to rise to this challenge have been developed in recent years.
Developing consistent, credible, and comparable accepted SDG impact measurement and management standards can play a vital role in mobilizing and catalyzing the financing needed to realize the SDGs.
