Key Performance Indicators

The list of UNCTAD SFT Key Performance Indicators features around than 200 indicators related to sustainable freight transport. This tool allows you to identify those KPIs which are best suited to analyse the status quo and monitor the success of your sustainable freight transport strategy. You can filter the KPIs by Mode of Transport, Scope and Dimensions of Sustainability. You can also carry out searches by using key words. As applicable, additional information is provided by means of specific links to supporting documentation and references.

For more information on how to effectively use and implement KPIs, see the Targets and Indicators Step of the UNCTAD SFT Framework.
