Abstract: The main component of the NextGeneration EU (NGEU) program is the Re-covery and Resilience Facility (RRF), spanning an implementation period between 2021 and 2026. The RRF also includes a monitoring system: every six months, each country is required to send an update on the progress of the plan against 14 common indicators, measured on specific quantitative scales. The aim of this paper is to present the first empirical evidence on this system, while, at the same time, emphasizing the potential of its integration with the sustainable development framework (SDGs). Our proposal is to develop a first linkage between the 14 common indicators and the SDGs which allows us to produce a composite index (SDGs-RRF) for France, Germany, Italy and Spain for the period 2014-2021. Over this time span, widespread improvements in the composite index across the four countries led to a partial reduction of the divergence. The proposed approach represents a first step towards a wider use of the SDGs for the assessment of the RRF, in line with their use in the European Semester documents prepared by the European Commission. In this respect, Italy’s experience is valuable, given the inclusion of well-being and sustainability indicators in public finance assessments and the availability of the NRRP-SDGs dashboard prepared by Istat and the State General Accounting Department (RGS).
