The VLR report presents a detailed picture of the process followed to conduct the district’s VLR in order to inspire other cities in the region to conduct their own local review. The VLR report presents a comprehensive review of all 17 SDGs, including current baseline, the results of the local evaluation survey, and localised targets and indicators. More importantly, most of the reviewed SDGs include a section on leaving no one behind that explains the actions taken to extend sustainable development to all segments of society.
