Abstract

Sustainable development has become a global agenda that was institutionalized through the United Nations’ Millennium Declaration in 2000 and was later promoted by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in 2015. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as part of the 2030 Agenda emerged as a comprehensive global framework for fostering universal development, with a vision of ‘leaving no one behind’. Both India and Germany are committed towards the 2030 Agenda. In light of this commitment, this article attempts to understand the initiatives taken by both the countries and by Europe to monitor the progress towards the achievement of the targets at the local/city level. It tries to understand the challenges in an urban data ecosystem for monitoring the progress (or regress) of the SDGs within the geographies. Lastly, the article puts forward recommendations for the timely assessment of sustainability measures and it advocates for the generation of granular data on a regular basis.
衡量可持续城市发展:以印度、欧洲和德国为例
可持续发展已成为一项全球议程,2000年联合国《千年宣言》将其制度化,并于2015年通过《2030年可持续发展议程》加以推动。作为《2030年议程》的一部分,可持续发展目标是促进普遍发展的全面全球框架,其愿景是“不让任何一个人掉队”。印度和德国都致力于实现2030年可持续发展议程。鉴于这一承诺,本文试图了解两国和欧洲为监测在地方/城市一级实现目标的进展情况而采取的主动行动。它试图了解城市数据生态系统在监测各地区可持续发展目标进展(或倒退)方面所面临的挑战。最后,文章提出了及时评估可持续性措施的建议,并主张定期生成细粒度数据。
