The guide, written by six SERI scientists, provides a quick, hands-on overview of selected environmental and social indicators for Civil Society Organisations to measure sustainable consumption and production. Indicators are valuable tools for Civil Society Organisations in order to achieve their targets as they create a sense of precision and attract interest making.

In addition the guide provides examples of how, by means of indicators, Civil Society Organisations can take effective action to encourage more sustainable consumption and production practices.

This booklet “Measuring Performance towards SCP – Types of Indicators and Indicator Sets” has been published under the framework of the project “Action Town – Research and Action for Sustainable Consumption and Production”.
