SDG 6 global monitoring
Integrated Monitoring Initiative for SDG 65
Objectives of the Integrated Monitoring Initiative
1. Develop methodologies and
tools to monitor SDG 6
global indicators
2. Raise awareness at national
and global levels about SDG
6 monitoring
3. Enhance country capacity in
monitoring (technical and
institutional)
4. Compile country data and
report on global progress
towards SDG 6
Integrated Monitoring Initiative for SDG 66
Principles for SDG 6 monitoring
• Building on and harmonising national monitoring efforts
• Steps of progressive monitoring
• Integration of data
• Policy use and data disaggregation

Integrated Monitoring Initiative for SDG 68
2016 Pilot testingNational process and organization
• National inception workshop with participants from across sectors, including
national statistics office
• Identification of SDG 6 focal point, formation of intersectoral monitoring
teams and technical teams
• Target-specific workshops to review methodologies and plan data collection
process
• Data collection, validation and analysis by technical teams
• National closing workshops, discussions on results and lessons learned,
planning for subsequent data collection cycle

Integrated Monitoring Initiative for SDG 69
2016 Pilot testingLessons learned (1)
1. High-level political support essential
2. Important to link and align with existing processes
3. Monitoring should be driven by data use
4. Many different stakeholders involved, including: • ministries and institutions for water, sanitation, environment,
meteorology and hydrology, food, agriculture, irrigation, health,
energy, mines, production, planning, housing and finance
• national statistical office
• different levels of government, civil society, private sector,
academic institutions, religious and cultural institutions

Integrated Monitoring Initiative for SDG 610
2016 Pilot testingLessons learned (2)
5. Intersectoral monitoring teams valuable
6. Start by looking at existing data availability
7. Progressive monitoring steps very useful
8. Being realistic about resource implications
9. SDG monitoring is a dynamic, learning and
evolving process...

Some final thoughts (1)
1. Member States are the ultimate owners of
SDG goals, targets, and indicators
2. SDG 6 monitoring methodologies are
recommendations with flexibility, to be
continously refined
3. ‘Progressive monitoring steps’ are a great
way to participate with less capacity and
resources
4. Countries don’t have to monitor all
indicators
5. Monitoring is a means to an end – essential
to focus on how data will be used
15
Integrated Monitoring Initiative for SDG 616
Some final thoughts (2)
6. National indicators should not be forgotten
7. Integrated monitoring means collaboration
across sectors, levels of government and
regions
8. Important to work with national statistical
office
9. Officially reported SDG data must be
approved by countries
10. Target date for data for Synthesis report is
September 2017
