SGI in print
 
Publication SGI2011 The new edition of the Sustainable Governance Indicators 2011 (SGI) in print will be released in summer 2011. This second major publication of data that builds on the successful and widely acknowledged first release in 2009 includes the 2011 findings and essays on the project’s conceptual framework and methodology. Summaries and strategic forecasts for each of the 31 OECD countries examined are also incorporated. The period under review ranges from May 2008 to April 2010, displaying the performance of these countries amid the global financial turmoil and economic crisis.
