The United Nations 2030 Agenda and the
Sustainable Development Goals are comprehensive and holistic
in nature, encompassing 17 goals and 169 targets covering
economic, social, and environmental dimensions of
development. Countries face the challenge of translating the
Sustainable Development Goals into feasible and realistic
development plans. This paper provides a simple analytical
framework to assist countries in prioritizing across
competing Sustainable Development Goals and evaluating data
availability to monitor them. The paper offers an analysis
of potential financial resources that can be used to finance
the investments needed to implement the 2030 Agenda. It uses
cross-country regressions of the Sustainable Development
Goals to benchmark a country's current outcomes against
those of other countries, given levels of gross national
income per capita, and projects its levels in 2030 if a
statistically significant relationship exists with gross
national income per capita. The paper applies the framework
to the Arab Republic of Egypt and as such, summarizes
Egypt's progress on the Sustainable Development Goals
since 2000 and projects expected values for the attainment
of future targets by 2030; (b) provides an assessment of
Egypt's current capacity to produce the data needed to
monitor the Sustainable Development Goals, and (c) assesses
options for increasing financing for development. Finally,
the paper compares Egypt's economic condition and
trends with those of its peers, the Republic Korea and Poland. |
