OVERVIEW

The tool enables you to map, visualize and analyze how the SDG targets of most relevance in your specific context influence each other. It will take you through a learning process that supports the integration of science and systems thinking in planning and policy-making for SDG implementation. This website provides guidance on how to use the tool and let's you create your own matrix for SDG synergies analysis.
