Strengthening national ownership of the first VNR
Objective
Increase participation in the VNR and emphasize national ownership of the report.
Overview
The Office of the Prime Minister led the VNR process in a manner that ensures high participation and emphasizes national ownership of the VNR report and its findings. The review process was supported by a steering committee made up of senior officials and the national SDG team, which includes representatives from 24 governmental, non-governmental and private sector organizations.
The responsibilities were clearly divided between the team responsible for drafting the VNR report, the national SDG team, the steering committee, and 12 working groups responsible for SDG follow-up and implementation.
The working groups were tasked with monitoring their identified SDG targets and indicators. They held meetings to exchange ideas and discuss different perspectives while preparing their inputs to the successive drafts of the report.
