Targets and Indicators with Data Availability

Note: The data may be updated periodically as more information become available.

11.1

Safe and Affordable Housing

By 2030, ensure access for all to adequate, safe and affordable housing and basic services and upgrade slums.

Indicator 11.1.1 | Proportion of urban population living in slums, informal settlements or inadequate housing

(a) Proportion of urban population living in slums is 0% as Singapore does not have any slums.

(b) Close to 80% of Singapore’s resident population live in public housing flats and the vast majority own their flats. There are also macroprudential safeguards in place for the purchase of public housing e.g. Mortgage loans for public housing are capped at 30% of a borrower’s gross monthly income.

11.2

Affordable and Sustainable Transport Systems

By 2030, provide access to safe, affordable, accessible and sustainable transport systems for all, improving road safety, notably by expanding public transport, with special attention to the needs of those in vulnerable situations, women, children, persons with disabilities and older persons.

Indicator 11.2.1 | Proportion of population that has convenient access to public transport, by sex, age and persons with disabilities

Almost 100% of Singapore’s population lives within 500m of a public transport stop.

ASEAN SDG Indicator
11.5

Reduce the Adverse Effects of Natural Disasters

By 2030, significantly reduce the number of deaths and the number of people affected and substantially decrease the direct economic losses relative to global gross domestic product caused by disasters, including water-related disasters, with a focus on protecting the poor and people in vulnerable situations.

Indicator 11.5.1 | Number of deaths, missing persons and directly affected persons attributed to disasters per 100,000 population

11.5.1

Singapore is not prone to natural disasters.


ASEAN SDG Indicator

Indicator 11.5.2 | Direct economic loss attributed to disasters in relation to global gross domestic product (GDP)

Singapore is not prone to natural disasters, and hence data on direct economic loss attributed to natural disasters is nil or negligible.


Indicator 11.5.3 | (a) Damage to critical infrastructure and (b) number of disruptions to basic services, attributed to disasters

Singapore is not prone to natural disasters, and hence data on damage to critical infrastructure and number of disruptions to basic services attributed to natural disasters is nil or negligible.


11.6

Reduce the Environmental Impact of Cities

By 2030, reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact of cities, including by paying special attention to air quality and municipal and other waste management.

Indicator 11.6.1 | Proportion of municipal solid waste collected and managed in controlled facilities out of total municipal waste generated, by cities

Proportion of solid waste collected and managed in authorised facilities out of total waste generated by Singapore is 100% for the data time period since before 2000.


ASEAN SDG Indicator

Indicator 11.6.2 | Annual mean levels of fine particulate matter (e.g. PM2.5 and PM10) in cities (population weighted)

11.7

Provide Access to Safe and Inclusive Green and Public Places

By 2030, provide universal access to safe, inclusive and accessible, green and public spaces, in particular for women and children, older persons and persons with disabilities.

Indicator 11.7.1 | Average share of the built-up area of cities that is open space for public use for all, by sex, age and persons with disabilities

Although Singapore does not track this indicator, we track the proportion of households within a 10-minute walk (400m) of a park to measure accessibility to green or open spaces and to facilitate the planning of parks. Under our City in Nature vision, Singapore aims to achieve 100% by 2030. As of 2021, we have achieved 94%.


Indicator 11.7.2 | Proportion of persons victim of non-sexual or sexual harassment, by sex, age, disability status and place of occurrence, in the previous 12 months

11.B

Implement Policies for Inclusion, Resource Efficiency and Disaster Risk Reduction

By 2020, substantially increase the number of cities and human settlements adopting and implementing integrated policies and plans towards inclusion, resource efficiency, mitigation and adaptation to climate change, resilience to disasters, and develop and implement, in line with the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030, holistic disaster risk management at all levels.

Indicator 11.B.1 | Number of countries that adopt and implement national disaster risk reduction strategies in line with the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030

As a city state, Singapore’s government carries out both national and local functions. Singapore is not prone to natural disasters and therefore does not systematically follow the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030. Nevertheless, in areas covered by the Sendai Framework, we have invested in and implemented strategies such as fire safety regulations, public warning systems, community engagement and the use of technology to prevent disasters and risks and improve emergency response.


ASEAN SDG Indicator 

Indicator 11.B.2 | Proportion of local governments that adopt and implement local disaster risk reduction strategies in line with national disaster risk reduction strategies

As a city state, Singapore’s government carries out both national and local functions. Singapore is not prone to natural disasters and therefore does not systematically follow the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030. Nevertheless, in areas covered by the Sendai Framework, we have invested in and implemented strategies such as fire safety regulations, public warning systems, community engagement and the use of technology to prevent disasters and risks and improve emergency response.
