EXERCISE

Identifying indicators and data sets

Let’s consider a fictional country that will be called “GEOland.” You are part of the team
charged with setting up the first IEA reporting process for this country.

Step 1
As a group, develop a list of short themes required to develop the assessment report.
Prioritize the themes according what might be most relevant for GEOland at this time. Form
smaller groups, and assign each group a theme.

Step 2
In sub-groups, prepare a list of issues related to the theme of your group.

Step 3
Set up a table to help you organize your thoughts, such as in the following example.

Theme Sub-theme Indicator Core indicator

Step 4
Identify indicators that correspond to each issue. Begin by brainstorming a larger list, and
then narrow down your list using the indicator criteria listed in Section 4.1. Indicate whether
the indicator is a driver, pressure, state, impact or response in the DPSIR framework.
