SDG INDICATOR 6.5.

1 TRACKING PROGRESS
Degree of Implementation of ON SDG INDICATOR 6.5.1
Integrated Water Resources Reporting on this indicator enables
Management (0-100) countries to track progress
towards SDG Target 6.5: By 2030,
2017 baseline reporting results implement integrated water resources
management at all levels, including through
transboundary cooperation as appropriate.
In 2017, 172 countries reported on the
status of IWRM implementation, based
on a country survey. This sheet provides a
summary of national reporting during the
baseline period.

Brazil
The indicator score is an average of the
four IWRM dimension scores, which are
themselves averages of the question
scores.

Simple interpretation of 6.5.1 IWRM implementation category

Very high 91-100: Vast majority of IWRM elements fully implemented and objectives consistently achieved.
High 71-90: Objectives of programmes generally met, stakeholder engagement generally good.
Medium-high 51-70: Capacity to implement IWRM elements under long-term programmes generally adequate.
Medium-low 31-50: Elements of IWRM generally institutionalized, and implementation underway.
Low 11-30: Implementation of some elements of IWRM begun, but potentially low stakeholder engagement.
Very low 0-10: Development of IWRM elements generally not begun, or stalled.
