Indicators need to be monitored, says Budi S Wardhana of @BRG_Indonesia.
There are still challenges along the way:
✔️Cost
✔️Time
✔️Ease of use
✔️Reliability
✔️Efficacy for adjustment/corrective action
#PeatlandsMatter

🔸Over-reliance on single indicators
🔸 Reporting indicators w/o contextual data
🔸 Accurate indicators but nobody can measure
🔸 Monitoring w/o benefits for local communities
“What we measure matters,”
- @profmarkreed, @SRUC
#PeatlandsMatter

A specific example: Even the word #sustainability is locally and culturally-defined
Here some recommendations in determining suitability of C&I ⤵️

🔸 Biophysical
🔸 Social
🔸 Economic
🔸 Governance

1/OK, data mystery time.
This New York Times feature shows China with a Gini Index of less than 30, which would make it more equal than Canada, France, or the Netherlands. https://t.co/g3Sv6DZTDE
That's weird. Income inequality in China is legendary.
Let's check this number.
2/The New York Times cites the World Bank's recent report, "Fair Progress? Economic Mobility across Generations Around the World".
The report is available here:
3/The World Bank report has a graph in which it appears to show the same value for China's Gini - under 0.3.
The graph cites the World Development Indicators as its source for the income inequality data.
4/The World Development Indicators are available at the World Bank's website.
Here's the Gini index: https://t.co/MvylQzpX6A
It looks as if the latest estimate for China's Gini is 42.2.
That estimate is from 2012.
5/A Gini of 42.2 would put China in the same neighborhood as the U.S., whose Gini was estimated at 41 in 2013.
I can't find the <30 number anywhere. The only other estimate in the tables for China is from 2008, when it was estimated at 42.8.
