The Global Project

 

The Global Project, which is hosted the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) and run in collaboration with other international and regional partners seeks to become the world wide reference point for those who wish to measure, and assess the progress of their societies.
 
The Global Project exists to foster the development of sets of key economic, social and environmental indicators to provide a comprehensive picture of how the well-being of a society is evolving. It also seeks to encourage the use of indicator sets to inform and promote evidence-based decision-making, within and across the public, private and citizen sectors.
 
Developing an accurate and representative set of progress measures for a society can be challenging. The Global Project - and UNITAR - intend to sustain this effort by providing innovative training to assist those wanting to measure progress, to raise awareness and teach new methods, concepts and tools.
