Lofgren, HansGable, SusannaOsorio-Rodarte, Israel2014-12-182014-12-182015-01https://hdl.handle.net/10986/20802With the 2015 deadline for the current Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) drawing near, the global community is shaping a new set of international development goals for the longer term. The process has involved consultations led by the UN Open Working Group guided by the 2013 report, a new global partnership of the UN High-level Panel. The work so far indicates that the post-2015 development agenda will encompass goals for social, economic, and environmental sustainability with broader coverage than the current MDGs. This paper refers to these post-2015 development goals as Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs. The World Bank Group is developing a diagnostic framework to assess the implications of implementing the post-2015 global development agenda at the country level. This framework has been applied to a pilot case study on Uganda, and some of the results of this study are highlighted here for illustrative purposes. The WBG has also developed a multi-country database that provides a starting point for similar diagnostics in other countries. Subject to data availability, the framework may be used to analyze likely progress in SDGs and their determinants and to discuss policy and financing options to accelerate their progress. This work has been shared with the Intergovernmental Committee of Experts on Sustainable Development Financing. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the application of this framework, drawing on the pilot study of Uganda.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO SAFE WATERACCOUNTABILITYACCOUNTINGADOLESCENT FERTILITYALLOCATIONARTICLEBENCHMARKBENCHMARKINGBENCHMARKSBUDGET RESOURCESCITIZENSCLIMATE CHANGECONTRACEPTIVE USECREDITWORTHINESSDATA AVAILABILITYDEBTDEBT SUSTAINABILITYDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCEDROPOUTECONOMIC GROWTHEDUCATION SPENDINGEFFICIENCY GAINSEFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTSEFFICIENCY OF PUBLIC SPENDINGELASTICITYELECTRICITYENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITYEXPECTED VALUEEXPECTED VALUESEXPENDITURESEXTERNAL DEBTEXTREME POVERTYFERTILITY RATEFINANCIAL MARKETSFISCAL CONSTRAINTSFOOD SECURITYFOREIGN BORROWINGFOREIGN EXCHANGEFOREIGN FINANCINGGDPGDP PER CAPITAGENDER EQUALITYGENDER PARITYGLOBAL AGENDAGLOBAL DEVELOPMENTGOOD GOVERNANCEGOVERNMENT CONSUMPTIONGOVERNMENT PERFORMANCEGOVERNMENT SPENDINGGROWTH PROJECTIONSGROWTH RATEHEALTH EXPENDITUREHEALTH EXPENDITURESHEALTH INDICATORSHEALTH SECTORHEALTH SERVICESHEALTH SPENDINGHEALTH SYSTEMSHIVHUMAN DEVELOPMENTILLNESSIMPROVEMENTS IN POLICIESINEFFICIENCYINFANTINFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENTINFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENTINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYINTERNATIONAL COMMUNITYINTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONSINVESTMENT IN EDUCATIONLEVELS OF EDUCATIONLEVELS OF PUBLIC SPENDINGLIFELONG LEARNINGLIVE BIRTHSLOCAL GOVERNMENTSLOW-INCOME COUNTRIESLOW-INCOME COUNTRYMACROECONOMIC PROJECTIONSMALARIAMARGINAL COSTMATERNAL MORTALITYMATERNAL MORTALITY RATEMATERNAL MORTALITY RATESMILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALSNATURAL RESOURCENUMERICAL TARGETSNUTRITIONOFFICIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCEPER CAPITA INCOMEPERFORMANCE INDEXPHYSICIANSPOLICY FRAMEWORKPOLICY MAKERSPOLICY RESEARCHPOLICY RESEARCH WORKING PAPERPOLITICIANSPOPULATION GROUPSPOPULATION GROWTHPOVERTY REDUCTIONPRESS RELEASEPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY SCHOOLPRIVATE INVESTMENTPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SPENDINGPROGRESSPUBLICPUBLIC CONSUMPTIONPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC EXPENDITURE REVIEWPUBLIC HEALTHPUBLIC INFORMATIONPUBLIC INVESTMENTPUBLIC SECTORPUBLIC SECTOR PRODUCTIVITYPUBLIC SPENDINGQUALITY EDUCATIONREAL GDPREMITTANCESROADSRULE OF LAWSAFE WATERSANITATIONSCHOOL LEVELSSCHOOL_YEARSECONDARY EDUCATIONSECONDARY SCHOOLSECONDARY SCHOOL LEVELSECONDARY SCHOOLSSERVICE DELIVERYSKILLED STAFFSUSTAINABILITY ANALYSISSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTTAXTAX POLICYTAX REVENUETAX REVENUESTEACHER RATIOTERTIARY EDUCATIONTUBERCULOSISUNCERTAINTYUNIVERSAL ACCESSVIOLENCEWASTEWOMANWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION10.1596/20802
