SDG Profile Phuket

June 18, 2024

The SDG Profiles are collaborative efforts by the Ministry of Interior, the United Nations 
Development Programme (UNDP), the National Institute of Development Administration (NIDA), and the Thailand Development Research Institute (TDRI) aim to create provincial Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) profiles for 15 target provinces in Thailand. These provinces include Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Mae Hong Son, Nakhon Ratchasima, Narathiwat, Pattani, Phetchaburi, Phuket, Songkhla, Surat Thani, Tak, Ubon Ratchathani, Udon Thani, Yala 

The project aims to raise awareness among provincial agencies about the importance of 
Sustainable Development Goals. The SDG profiles (hereafter, the report) are not just documents but powerful tools that enhance understanding of the alignment between sustainable development goals and provincial development strategies, empowering the stakeholders with knowledge and insights. 

Specifically, Phuket’s SDG Profile Report provides an overview of the province’s sustainable 
development context using the UN’s SDG indicators. It further analyses the alignment among the SDGs, the Phuket Development Plan (2023-2027), and public perspectives on critical sustainability issues. This report aims to provide the local government with a clear picture of Phuket’s state of play in sustainable development, helping the province identify its 
sustainable development gaps and develop a strategy that leads to a more sustainable future.
