Voluntary National Review (VNR)
A Voluntary National Review (VNR) is a report that countries prepare to share their progress toward achieving global sustainable development goals, such as ending poverty, protecting the environment, and promoting equality. It provides an overview of policies, initiatives, successes, and challenges at the national level. Countries present their VNRs at international forums to foster transparency, encourage peer learning, and coordinate efforts. The process helps nations assess their development journey, identify gaps, and plan future actions to ensure a more sustainable and equitable future for all.
