Measuring the transformation of the economy: green growth indicators - Policy Perspectives 2016

Page 21

Use of OECD set of GGIs The practical application of the OECD set of GGIs started in OECD member states prior to its official launch with the Netherlands releasing the first report of this kind in 2011. Several other countries have applied and adjusted the OECD green growth measurement framework and indicators nationally, including Korea (2012), Germany (2012), Denmark (2012), the Czech Republic (2013), Slovenia (2014) and the Slovak Republic (2014). A pilot study of green growth indicators in Latin American and the Caribbean countries was also undertaken.

Countries followed different approaches in the use and presentation of green growth indicators. While some countries used the OECD proposed thematic grouping of indicators, some adjusted the structure such as the Netherlands or Denmark. Most countries have put their own trends in perspective with established targets and international comparison to provide additional information.
