This report synthesises three studies on the role of indicators in assisting national green economy policymaking that were conducted in Ghana, Mauritius and Uruguay. Based on these country experiences, the report discusses key findings and challenges. The report recommends increasing the temporal coordination between the work on modelling and indicators in order to allow both to be more useful in policy formulation and assessment. When models are better connected, they can benefit from the richer data collection needed for the construction of indicators. This helps to refine the analysis of the implications of policy interventions. Similarly, the construction of indicators must be guided by the structure of models, which will help indicators to be more precise and better articulated. Finally, work on indicators should be proactive to allow an early learning process. This will create better opportunities for improving the indicators for use in all stages of green economy policymaking.
