Summary

Statistics Portugal is launching today the third edition of the national publication on the statistical monitoring of the UN 2030 Agenda, entitled “Sustainable Development Goals: Indicators for Portugal | 2030 Agenda”. From the available indicators, it is possible to have a sense of the country’s performance concerning the SDG, with progress being made in some of them, namely in the areas of poverty reduction, access to health and renewable energies.

The information in this press release does not yet reflect the current situation determined by the pandemic Covid19. It is expected that the analyzed trends will change substantially. Nonetheless, the information available today is useful to establish a reference to assess future developments. Despite the circumstances, Statistics Portugal will try to maintain the statistical production and release calendar, although some adjustments might occur associated with the impact of the pandemic in obtaining primary information. For this reason, Statistics Portugal asks for the best collaboration by firms, households and public entities in answering to Statistics Portugal‘s requests to obtain information, using Internet and telephone as alternative channels to face-to-face contacts. The quality of official statistics, particularly its ability to identify the impacts of the Covid19 pandemic, depends crucially on this collaboration that Statistics Portugal is grateful for in advance.
