It highlights the need for R&D in achieving health targets and emphasizes the lack of focus on R&D in the SDGs. The article also mentions the crowded space of goals, targets, and indicators and the need for indicators that measure innovation.

Measuring innovation for global health in the post-2015 development agenda Dr Nick Chapman Director of Research, Policy Cures NYC, 28 April 2015
R&D is central to achieving the health aims of the SDGs Analysis shows that nearly half of the 19 SDG targets representing the best value-for-money are health targets (8) Many health targets (e.g. reducing TB globally by 90%) cannot not be achieved without R&D of new health technologies
… but R&D is at risk of being completely ignored in the SDGs • R&D is almost entirely absent from the SDGs and the proposed SDG indicators • R&D for ‘health needs of DCs’ is mentioned in one of the 169 targets (Target 3.b), but is confused with access • Essentially absent from indicator proposals (including for the ‘global health R&D’ target above)
A crowded (and contested) space 17 goals(1 for health) 8 goals (3 for health) Sustainable Development Goals: Millennium Development Goals: 169 targets 21 targets 60 indicators <120 indicators
Few good existing indicators… (& missing from current proposals) Indicators that measure innovation for global health Indicators that measure innovation Indicators that measure global health
The aim of the project • To identify a small number of health R&D indicators that should be included in the SDG global monitoring framework • Feasible, suitable and relevant to the target • Supported by the global health community • Balance of realism and aspiration
