Session 4 – Technical considerations for refined mapping of indicators
|
|
09:30 – 10:30
|
Breakout groups:
On Criteria: SB 60 suggested that the mapping may use criteria outlined in paragraph 12 of the SB conclusions, were there any challenges in applying them when:
- Preparing and compiling indicators for submissions?
- Reviewing/refining the existing indicators?
On a consistent approach
- How do you ensure a consistent approach/methodology in the process of refining the indicators across both the thematic and dimensional targets?
- Do you think it may be useful for different target groups to come up with adjustments based on the specific nuances of their topic area?
On the final outcome of agreed indicators:
- Given the ongoing discussions on the nature of final outcome of the indicators process, what are your suggestions on the optimal outcome that can take into account the review of the overall progress in achieving the GGA for the 2nd GST as well as different national context and circumstances?

Panel discussions:
Several submissions identified gaps and areas for the development of new indicators:
- How have you approached these gaps in your review and refinement of indicators? What patterns have you seen, and what are some of the most common themes?
- How in your view the indicator process provide opportunities to help address such gaps towards assessing achievement of the GGA?
