Developing and implementing framework conditions that promote green growth requires a good understanding of the determinants of green growth and of related trade-offs or synergies. It also requires appropriate information to support policy analysis and to monitor progress. Progress can be measured through indicators that monitor trends and structural changes, and that attract attention to issues that require further analysis and possible policy action. Indicators also help raise the profile of green growth issues in the public debate and gauge how well policies are performing with respect to green growth.
