FN UN indicators

A UN indicator is used when the indicator coincides with indicators proprosed by the UN.


FN Proxy indicators

A proxy indicator is used when an indicator is considered to approximate a UN indicator.


GS Local indicators

The global nature of the SDGs means that not all targets and indicators are equally relevant for all countries. Local indicators are our own proposals for supplementary Greenlandic indicators.
