The 2019 Africa SDG Index and Dashboards Report is a call for action not only to meet the SDGs but also to ensure timely and high-quality data on SDG indicators. The report focuses on the efforts that African governments are taking to incorporate the SDGs into their national strategies, budgets, public engagements, and coordination among branches of government. This report includes all 54 African countries and their country profiles.

The 2019 Africa SDG Index and Dashboards Report is a call for action not only to meet the SDGs but also to ensure
timely and high-quality data on SDG indicators. The report focuses on the efforts that African governments are
taking to incorporate the SDGs into their national strategies, budgets, public engagements, and coordination
among branches of government. Governments have a unique and central role to play in achieving the UN’s Agenda
2030 as well as Africa’s own Agenda 2063, which will continue beyond the SDG timeline. While good governance
is a Sustainable Development Goal in its own right (SDG 16), the active role of government is instrumental to every
other SDG as well.

For this reason, it is necessary not only for each country to reflect on its current SDG status and progress, which
are featured in detail in the country profiles, but to analyze how government-led efforts can be improved and
accelerated. To this end, we invite countries to organize an “SDG Day” to reflect, at the country level, on the progress
made toward the SDGs and how government efforts can do more to support SDG progress. The SDG Day would
also be an opportunity to reflect on how the specific SDG targets can be placed in the national context, and how
SDG metrics can be disaggregated by region and by household
