This Progress Report on the Implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2023 is the fourth progress report produced by the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia (SORS) with the support of the Swiss and German Governments and the United Nations in Serbia. Continuity in monitoring progress has provided systematic insights into areas where the Republic of Serbia (RS) is making progress towards achieving the goals defined in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, as well as areas where additional efforts are needed to accelerate development processes.

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 SDGs, which were adopted by all member states of the United Nations in September 2015, represent a global strategic framework for sustainable development that all member states and relevant international stakeholders should strive to achieve. The 2030 Agenda is the foundation for the vision of development as sustainable prosperity based on social inclusion and equality, while preserving our planet at the same time. One of the fundamental principles this strategic framework rests upon is Leave no one behind, namely excluded from development processes and development achievements.
