Acknowledgements
We would like to acknowledge the enormous contributions made to our work by a wide range of people and organisations, including: as ever, those who provided written and/or oral evidence (and who are listed at the end of this Report) and those whose published work we have also used (and referenced by way of the traditional footnote).
Especial thanks to our Specialist Adviser on this line of inquiry, Dr Graham Long, Associate Director of Newcastle University Institute for Sustainability, and two organisations in particular, the UK Stakeholders for Sustainable Development (UKSSD) and the Bond SDGs Working Group whose inputs have been invaluable.
Within Parliament, we have benefited from the work of the Environmental Audit Committee (and cooperation between our staff teams) and, equally, the All-Party Parliamentary Group on the United Nations Global Goals for Sustainable Development.
We also thank the staff of DFID for their continued cooperation, both formal and informal, with our scrutiny.
