Measuring Sustainable Development Goals Performance provides a quantitative and analytical framework for evaluating social, economic, and environmental policies aiming at the UN sustainable development goals (SDGs). Continuing their earlier work on multidimensional analysis, the authors demonstrate how nations can be ranked in terms of their performance in meeting a given set of SDGs, providing numerical calculation of SDGs deficit. Their calculations show that even before the arrival of the COVID-19 virus, there existed in several large Western nations undetected pockets of SDG deficits, such as in the care for the elderly, personal safety, and hygiene. Extending the calculations to cover COVID-19 data for 2020, it turns out that the same deficit nations also suffered excess death rates caused by the virus.This book offers a balanced and holistic paradigm for evaluating progress of the SDGs, assisting the convergence of national and international efforts toward economic development, social progress, and environmental protection. 2023 PROSE Awards - Winner: Category: Single and Multivolume Reference and Textbooks in Social Sciences: Association of American Publishers Includes novel tools, procedures, diagnostics, and metrics for evaluating the entire spectrum of SDGs in a wide variety of settings Ranks nations according to their social and economic performance, based on each nation's unique resource and output indicators Examines international efforts toward shaping a new Social Contract between global partners Delivers a new Calculus of Consent: Logical foundation for forging Geneva Consensus for Sustainable Development

A new field of integrated performance measurement is rapidly evolving, in which sustainability is defined in terms of contextually relevant economic, environmental, and social indicators. There is a corresponding international momentum for progress on sustainability-related performance measurement, with a requirement for the development of methodologies and indicator sets that are comparable across various scales and sectors. This publication is a compendium of indicator initiatives and publications which is intended to provide up-to-date and essential information needed by practitioners to establish partnerships and orient themselves in this field. The section on experts and initiatives is arranged geographically by continent, with separate subsections for Canada, the United States, United Nations, and other initiatives with a global mandate. Information given for each initiative or expert includes project and contact name, addresses (including electronic mail) and phone numbers, description of initiative, and publications if any. The bibliographic section is arranged alphabetically by author under topics including theory and methods of sustainable development indicators, ecosystem and ecoregion-based indicators, geographically based indicators, and livelihood system indicators. Includes author, subject, and organisation index, and a list of acronyms.
