The Friends of the Chair group has been mandated to
“build a work programme to develop broader measures of progress based on a stocktaking exercise of current national, regional and international practices in this field, and to conduct a technical review of these existing efforts with a view to identifying good/best practices and to facilitating the sharing of knowledge, especially for the benefit of developing countries.”
This page will contain documents and information regarding broader measures of progress. At this stage only a few documents are posted but a comprehensive inventory of information will be developed.
