INDICATOR DETAILS
The National Environmental
Indicators Programme was initiated to develop environmental
indicators for enhanced state of the environment reporting
in South Africa.
The set of indicators is divided into eight themes, designed
to address the priority national environmental issues facing
South Africa today. From the links below, you will be able
to read a description of each
theme, as well as displaying the set of indicators associated
with that theme.
Each indicator has an information or methodology sheet associated
with it. The information or methodology sheet contains a
wide variety of information, including:
- Description of the indicator
- Reasons for selecting the indicator
- Linkages to other indicator initiatives
- Information on data sources, data acquisition and data
limitations
- Example(s) of reporting on the indicator, including
methodologies for calculation where appropriate
- Outline of any needs for further developing the indicator.
