FORMING THE SYSTEM OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT INDICATORS FOR BIOSOCIAL ECONOMY ASSESSMENT
Abstract
The paper compares frequently used methods for sustainable development assessing. We studied the systems of sustainable development indicators for assessing its individual areas (in particular, economic, environmental and social), and also analyzed aggregate indices designed for a comprehensive assessment of development both at the macro level and at the level of specific individual territorial units. For each methodology, the structures of index systems were presented with their breakdown into spheres and blocks / categories, and the main disadvantages of each methodology were determined. Among the methodologies considered are the following: the methodology proposed by the Global Biopact, indicator systems from the OECD Green Growth Strategy and World Bank indicators. The work carried out a structural analysis and explored the content of aggregated indices: Social Progress Index, Environmental Efficiency Index, Global Climate Change Adaptation Index and Human Development Index. The listed systems of indicators and indices are used at the global level, their use for Ukraine needs to be adapted. The adaptation of such techniques to the Ukrainian realities was shown on the example of a system of indicators based on the goals of sustainable development. Each goal has a number of tasks, the implementation of which is necessary to achieve it. For each task, several indicators are proposed for assessing the level of their implementation, an analysis of these indicators showed that for Ukraine, metadata has not been defined for indicators for most of the goals. In the above methods, indicators for assessing the bioeconomic direction (with the exception of biodiversity) are almost not presented, therefore, the development of a model for assessing the biosocial economy requires the inclusion of indicators characterizing bioresources, biotechnologies, and bioenergy.
