Abstract

This report aims to present an initial assessment of the North Aegean region's capacity to monitor 83 specific indicators related to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which has yielded valuable conclusions and recommendations. It also aims to provide insights and evaluate the potential implementation of a Voluntary Local Review (VLR) using a methodology that can be developed at the regional level in Europe. Notably, out of the 83 indicators monitored at the national level, only 28 are monitored regionally, with data available for 21 of them. However, it is encouraging to observe that SDGs 3, 4, 8, and 13 have been monitored 100% at the regional and national levels, indicating a solid commitment to tracking progress in these areas. The North Aegean Region must still undertake organized preparations for a Voluntary Local Review (VLR). However, there is a growing political commitment from Regional Authorities to align regional policies with the fulfillment of the 17 SDGs. The pilot project, "Monitoring the SDGs in the EU regions - Filling the data gaps - REGIONS2030," is a significant step in this direction, providing valuable information and data on specific indicators, identifying data gaps, and suggesting alternative and new indicators along with their data sources.
