Statistics Portugal releases on National Day for Sustainability, the eighth national statistical monitoring of the UN 2030 Agenda. For the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the performance of 179 indicators (9 additional compared to the previous edition) was evaluated. The analysis covers the period starting in 2015 (beginning of the 2030 Agenda) until the last year with available information.

In 11 of these SDGs, most indicators evolved favorably, standing out SDGs 10 (Reduce inequalities), 6 (Drinking water and sanitation) and 7 (Renewable and accessible energy), due to the greater percentage of indicators with favorable performance (higher or equal to 80%).

Six SDGs have less than half of the indicators with positive evolution: 2 (Eradicate hunger), 5 (Gender equality), 12 (Sustainable production and consumption), 14 (Protect marine life), 15 (Protect life on land) and 16 (Peace, justice and effective institutions).
