Finding
To highlight the sustainable development performance of the provinces, the VNR includes an analysis of the efforts made by seven selected provinces, containing more than half of the Iraqi population. They are presented in Chapter V to analyze their experience in achieving the SDGs.
To monitor this performance, the preparation team developed two digital guides to measure achievement. The first focuses on the achievement of indicators for each goal compared to the international standard. The second looks at local development perseverance; it ranks each province’s commitment to progress in terms of success on indicators for each goal.
