Overview
The United Nations Sustainable Development Group (UNSDG)​​​​​​​ Output Indicator Framework was launched globally in November 2022. It ensures cohesive functioning of the UN by facilitating the design and implementation of UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (Cooperation Framework), at the level of the Cooperation Framework outputs and producing/providing quality-assured SDG-focused corporate-level output indicators. The Output Indicator Framework is the next-generation framework that has been built on the lessons learned and evaluation findings of the UN Framework for the Immediate Socio-Economic Response to COVID-19.
The Output Indicator Framework was developed through a consultative, inter-agency process at a global and regional level with inputs provided by UN entities and RCOs. There are over 500 indicators (quality assured by UNSDG members) in the inventory and 64 indicators in the Menu (UNCTs are requested to select at least 15 in the JWP). The framework is intended to support the Government and UN Country Teams (UNCTs) in identifying suitable outputs for Cooperation Framework Joint Work Plan (JWP). The indicators capture the joint contribution of the UN towards SDGs.
The Output Indicator Framework aims to improve the quality of Cooperation Framework monitoring and to enable more effective programmatic decision-making, while minimising transaction costs (by using agency indicators and methodologies) and lightening reporting burdens wherever possible (through data exchange between corporate reporting and planning systems).
