This indicator contains some alternative data to those specified by the United Nations (UN). This indicator is the most suitable match currently available.

This indicator is not directly relevant to the United Kingdom, however, the equivalent data for the UK are provided in indicator 13.2.1 ‘Number of countries with nationally determined contributions, long-term strategies, national adaptation plans, strategies as reported in adaptation communications and national communications’.

This indicator was added following indicator changes from the United Nations 2020 Comprehensive Review. The indicator it replaced has been archived.

This table provides metadata for the actual indicator available from UK statistics closest to the corresponding global SDG indicator. Please note that even when the global SDG indicator is fully available from UK statistics, this table should be consulted for information on national methodology and other UK-specific metadata information.
