Regarding your last point, I'm glad you raised the issue of why our report found the patterns we did in terms of which SDGs are being evaluated (with quantitative impact evaluations) and which aren't. For context, we generally tried to stay away from "why?" questions because (a) our data don't really give us insight about that, and (b) we aren't experts in all the sectors covered.
But obviously, over the course of writing the report we wondered about why we were seeing the patterns we did. Like you, I'd be very curious to hear thoughts from environmental sector experts. I'd also be interested in hearing your own hypotheses!
RE: How are we progressing in SDG evaluation?
Dear Emilia,
Regarding your last point, I'm glad you raised the issue of why our report found the patterns we did in terms of which SDGs are being evaluated (with quantitative impact evaluations) and which aren't. For context, we generally tried to stay away from "why?" questions because (a) our data don't really give us insight about that, and (b) we aren't experts in all the sectors covered.
