SDG 11.6.2 Working Group: Final Meeting [1]

[]

Date: 2022-08-03

The global SDG indicator framework was adopted by the General Assembly on 6 July 2017 and is contained in the Resolution adopted by the General Assembly on Work of the Statistical Commission pertaining to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (A/RES/71/313). WHO is custodial agency for the three-air pollution-related indicators, among them SDG 11.6.2, ‘Air quality in urban areas’ (Tier 1). The indicator is currently reported every 2-3 years, in the form of modelled estimates of population-weighted particulate matter (PM2.5), based on input data from ground measurements and satellite data.

This Working Group that has been convened by WHO with sister UN Agencies will explore specific issues related to SDG 11.6.2 indicator reporting, as well as support the development of tools and guidance documents for this indicator.
