Compendium: A Global Directory to Indicator Initiatives Earlier Work: City of Guadalajara, Mexico Northwest Frontier Province, Pakistan Science and Policy Dialogue SD Reporting in Manitoba's Prairie Ecozone IISD's strategic objective on measurement and indicators is to facilitate the development of robust sets of indicators for public- and private-sector decision-makers to measure progress toward sustainable development and to build an international consensus to promote their systematic use in assessment, reporting and planning. IISD has been working on measurements and indicators since 1995, with the aim of making significant local, national and international contributions, and of building the institute into a world centre of expertise in this field. While continuing with projects focused on sustainability indicators, we are broadening this work to better understand what makes indicators work, and to innovation in integrated assessment, reporting and adaptive planning. Our research emphasizes the importance of linking assessment and measurement work to decision-making and policy-making. IISD contributes to the international discourse on conceptual issues related to the development and application of measurement and assessment frameworks and methodologies. The institute also addresses monitoring, data collection and quality control problems, and facilitates improved access to data and information on sustainable development.
