There is recognition in the proposals for both the SDGs and the Sendai Framework that their desired outcomes are a product of complex and interconnected social and economic processes with overlap across the two agendas.

As a reflection of this, important synergies exist between reporting on the two frameworks. Monitoring of the Sendai Framework is intended to complement monitoring of 11 SDG indicators listed below:
