What is it about?
The paper is about the coverage of SDG issues in national bioeconomy strategies. We focused on eight countries that already have elaborated indicators in their national bioeconomy strategies. We found a coverage of SDG-related issues of up to 14 out of the 17 SDGs in the bioeconomy strategies and a high share of forest-related indicators within the bioeconomy indicators used.

Why is it important?
Our paper does not contribute to proposing the most suitable indicators, but it does encourage national and regional actors to carefully and holistically develop their bioeconomy monitoring systems using synergies from the already existing SDGs and forest monitoring processes.
Perspectives
The paper is a timely contribution to the increasing development of national bioeconomy monitoring systems.
