SDG 17: PARTNERSHIP FOR THE GOALS
This goal is an extension and a more explicit formulation of the Goal 8 MDGs. This more concrete formulation is driven by the low commitment to global cooperation including funding support from developed countries during the implementation of the MDGs. With this experience, the formulation of a global partnership which is an implementation step to facilitate the achievement of the SDGs is carried out not only in general in Goal 17, but also inherent in each Goal (Targets with labels a, b, c etc.).
Some of the implementation methods formulated are those related to funding, both from the mobilization of resources in the country and the old mechanism through Official Development Assistance (ODA). The participation of non-government actors in the implementation of the SDGs is felt to be very central. Therefore, one of the funding targets is to mobilize funding sources for various non-government institutions, such as private funds/cooperation, philanthropy and other new mechanisms. Cooperation in the field of technology, capacity building and trade methods also still have to be done concretely to accelerate the achievement of the SDGs. Global cooperation also identified cooperation on systemic issues such as international coherence and policy; multi-stakeholder cooperation as well as cooperation in the field of data development to improve monitoring and accountability capabilities in the implementation of the SDGs.

The countries with the most minor total indicators interrupted were Malaysia (43.5%) and Vietnam (48%). Meanwhile, the interruption indicator in Indonesia is 70.3%, and the Philippines is 68%. To increase SDG achievement, it is necessary to refocus development programs, economic recovery, digital transformation, and other programs.
