Chapter 1: Core Strategy
The Sustainable Development Goals
The inclusion of the Sustainable Development Goals in Chapter 1 is welcome. The draft plan does not focus sufficiently on contributing to Ireland’s commitment to achieve the SDGs by 2030.
It is not clear from the draft plan how the policies in each Chapter therein will contribute to the achievement of the SDGs.
Recommendations:
- The plan must include measurable targets and timelines.
- The City Council should identify an appropriate range of indicators from among the SDG Global Indicator Framework
- That range of indicators should be used to monitor progress towards the achievement of the SDGs
