Issue: Drafting the VNR Report

Year: 2020Income Group: Lower middle incomeSource: VNR
Finding: Kenya submitted its first VNR report in 2017. It followed the suggested structure in the voluntary guidelines but did not include a chapter on eradicating poverty and promoting prosperity, However, the report provides a complete vision of the country's situation and efforts in an easy-to-read 75-page document. A second report was submitted in 2020, and wholly followed the guidelines. The preparation of the second VNR report involved retreat by the State Department for Planning and Inter-Agency Technical Working Committee to domesticate the Secretary-General’s voluntary reporting guidelines, and resulted in the creation of "domesticated VNR guidelines."
