История Целей устойчивого развития начинается с 25 сентября 2015 года. В тот же день в штаб-квартире Организации Объединенных Наций в Нью-Йорке мировые лидеры приняли повестку дня в области устойчивого развития до 2030 года. Повестка дня в области устойчивого развития ориентирована на масштабные и долгосрочные изменения. Она объединяет 17 направлений Целей устойчивого развития, охватывающие основные аспекты социального, экономического и экологического развития. Об этом на пресс-конференции в СЦК напомнил вице-министр национальной экономики РК Асан Дарбаев.В Казахстане сформирована институциональная основа, направленная на реализацию Целей устойчивого развития Организации Объединенных Наций. Сегодня в Казахстане свою деятельность осуществляет Парламентская комиссия по мониторингу реализации национальных целей и задач в области устойчивого развития в Республике Казахстан. «Заседания Комиссии проводятся на постоянной основе с участием руководства Правительства, министерства национальной экономики и заинтересованных министерств и ведомств. Проведено 11 заседаний. Таким образом, вопросы реализации Целей устойчивого развития находятся на постоянном контроле депутатов Парламента, что обеспечивает дополнительный мониторинг и механизм общественной ответственности. На сегодняшний день система мониторинга Целей устойчивого развития охватывает 200 индикаторов, 69 из них признаны актуальными для Казахстана, а 131 - предназначен для проведения мониторинга», – сказал спикер. Работу по ведению базы данных индикаторов Целей устойчивого развития осуществляет Бюро национальной статистики Агентства по стратегическому планированию и реформам. Сформирована правовая основа, обеспечивающая охват Целей устойчивого развития документами системы государственного планирования.Принципы устойчивости и инклюзивности заложены в основу Национального плана развития Республики Казахстан до 2029 года. Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1131561?lang=kk

Адаптация стратегических Целей устойчивого развития осуществляется через документы системы государственного планирования. В Казахстане действует обновленная система государственного планирования, в рамках которой национальные индикаторы Целей устойчивого развития внедряются в документы программного и стратегического планирования, в том числе путем их локализации в региональных документах. Об этом сообщил вице-министр национальной экономики РК Асан Дарбаев на площадке СЦК.По данным Министерства национальной экономики РК, порядка 94,2% национальных индикаторов включены в планы развития государственных органов, а в планах развития областей уровень охвата ключевых индикаторов для регионов достигает 100%.«За последние 10 лет с момента принятия Целей устойчивого развития наблюдается положительная динамика по многим направлениям. Так, если охват дошкольным образованием в 2015 году составлял 53,8%, то в 2024 году показатель достиг 95,9%. Вместе с тем дальнейшее улучшение показателей достижения Целей устойчивого развития требует обеспечения тесной взаимосвязи стратегического и бюджетного планирования», – отметил спикер.Таким образом, национальные индикаторы Целей устойчивого развития, включенные в стратегические документы, напрямую увязаны с бюджетными программами. Это, в свою очередь, означает наличие необходимого финансирования, обеспечивающего их практическую реализацию.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1131565?lang=kk
