The event will demonstrate the potentials of community-driven data to serve as a transformative means for accelerating SDG implementation, and improve monitoring and review through: A) closing knowledge gaps on the situation and inclusion of marginalised groups, B) fostering closer collaboration between an active civil society and authorities at the local and national levels in the SDG process, C) delivering locally anchored information to guide adequate SDG responses to COVID-19.
