Global implementation of SDG 6 monitoring will be multi-phased and initially focus on establishing a global baseline for the 11 global indicators under SDG 6. In this first phase, UN-Water will convene inception webinars for country focal points to introduce SDG 6 monitoring and discuss the implementation at country level.

It is foreseen that approximately 50 countries will produce baseline data by September 2017 to feed into the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development’s in-depth review of SDG 6 in 2018.
