The establishment of a set of scientifically sound and operationally feasible Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs) indicator system is the core content of the UN's implementation of the SDGs2030 agenda. Internationally,especially some developed OECD countries have taken the lead in the construction of SDGs indicator system and carried out a series of practical application and effect evaluation in combination with specific national conditions,which has certain reference significance for the localized construction of SDGs indicator system in China.This paper systematically analyzes the paths and experience of the construction of SDGs indicators in Germany,the United Kingdom,the Netherlands,the United States,South Korea and other countries.It is suggested that China should speed up the research and establishment of a set of localized SDGs indicator system,establish and improve the regular publication system of national SDGs progress reports based on indicator monitoring and evaluation,strengthen the implementation ability construction and coordination mechanism of SDGs and enhance international exchanges and cooperation on the implementation of SDGs.
