NO The project Enhancing Capacity for Measuring Progress towards the Environmental Dimension of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), funded by the European Commission, was instituted to strengthen national capacity for monitoring and reporting on the environmental dimension of the SDGs, including SDG indicators 8.4.1/12.2.1 on material footprint, 8.4.2/12.2.2 on domestic material consumption, 12.3.1b on food waste, 12.4.2 on hazardous waste generated and treated, 12.5.1 on national recycling rate and 17.14.1 on policy coherence.National activities were implemented in different formats in beneficiary countries in Africa and Asia. The aims of the national activities were to deepen government officials’ understanding of the adopted methodologies for SDG indicators, to equip them with the necessary statistical capacity to report on these indicators and as these indicators require data from multiple national stakeholders, engage all stakeholders together for future collaborations.As part of the project, an out-of-country training on food waste indicator (SDG indicator 12.3.1b) was implemented in Paris, France from 28 to 29 November 2023. The representatives from India were invited to participate in the planned training with representatives from other countries.
