Kyiv, 5 June 2026 — The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Ukraine has supported the modernisation of Ukraine’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) monitoring platform, which is administered by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine. The modernisation was funded by the Government of Japan under the project “Supporting Inclusive Recovery for Resilient and Secure People in Ukraine,” with expert assistance from the Diia Support Project, which is implemented by UNDP in Ukraine with funding from the Government of Sweden.

The updated platform is available at: https://sdg.stat.gov.ua/

The platform upgrade will help ensure there is transparent and user-friendly access to data on Ukraine’s progress in achieving the SDGs, particularly in the context of war and national recovery. The platform has been updated in line with the new national SDG framework and indicator set that was approved by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine in 2024.

The updates include the integration of the new structure of goals and indicators, improved functionality and design, enhanced data visualisation, bilingual support in Ukrainian and English, and strengthened accessibility and security features. In addition, historical data from the previous SDG monitoring system has been preserved, enabling the long-term tracking of trends and progress.

The Head of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine, Arsen Makarchuk, emphasised the practical importance of the platform’s modernisation: “The updated SDG platform provides a unified, up-to-date and structured presentation of data on Ukraine’s progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals,” he said. “It supports progress measurement, making it transparent, comparable and easy to understand. This strengthens the evidence base for managerial and policy decisions and reinforces trust in data as a reliable foundation for decision-making. We thank UNDP in Ukraine and the Governments of Japan and Sweden for their support of this project.”

Olena Ursu, UNDP Programme Specialist, Democratic Governance and Inclusive Social Fabric (Team Leader), highlighted the importance of the platform upgrade for tracking Ukraine’s progress towards the SDGs: “The Sustainable Development Goals provide clear development benchmarks for countries – they are not abstract indicators, but a practical framework for shaping policies aimed at improving people’s well-being, ensuring sustainable economic development and strengthening effective governance,” Ursu said. “The updated platform provides access to up-to-date national data and enables comprehensive tracking of Ukraine’s progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.”

“In the context of the full-scale war, the availability of reliable and open data is particularly important for planning recovery efforts, assessing their impact and ensuring accountability. UNDP in Ukraine continues to support the digital transformation of the public sector and the strengthening of institutional capacity as an important prerequisite for Ukraine’s sustainable development and European integration.”

Background: 
The SDG monitoring platform of Ukraine was developed on the Open SDG open-source platform in accordance with Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine Order No. 686-р of 21 August 2019. The State Statistics Service of Ukraine is responsible for collecting, processing and publishing data on national SDG indicators.

In 2024, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, with UNDP support, updated the national Sustainable Development Goals framework and approved a new set of 309 indicators for monitoring Ukraine’s progress towards achieving the SDGs.
