How can countries measure progress towards Sustainable Development Goals for natural resources and ecosystem services?
Measuring the outcomes of natural resource management and ecosystem service-based management is a challenge. Policy makers and donors prefer straightforward indicators that compress complex data into a handful of figures; natural resource and ecosystem service-based management defy such an approach. This team developed indicators for the natural resource-related Sustainable Development Goals, testing them in the Nile, Volta and Niger river basins.
