Moldova’s work to achieve Goal 12 aims to produce a shift towards a sustainable way of ‘doing business’ at the policy, firm and population levels. Thus, the principles of sustainable development and procurement, as well as efficient management of national resources, will be fully incorporated into national policymaking and regulations. Industries and businesses will be encouraged to adopt resource-efficient production and to share responsibility for the disposal of toxic waste and pollutants. Meanwhile, the population should acknowledge its responsibility in regard to the consumption of economic goods and natural resources, and reduce waste generation and increase recycling. The synergy and participation of all actors in this production–consumption chain will save and preserve natural resources and reduce the ecological damage caused by economic growth.

Note:
* Nationalized targets, nationalized indicators and statistical data presented under this heading are taken from the Report "Nationalization of indicators for SDG" and Adapting the 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development to the context of the Republic of Moldova elaborated by Expert-Grup in collaboration with the Government of the Republic of Moldova and UN Moldova in 2017 and presents the situation at that time. Currently, the next stage of revising the nationalized indicators is taking place, thus, some indicators can be revised or supplemented later.
