Europe 2020 strategy – towards a smarter, greener and more inclusive EU economy?

This publication presents the latest available data on Europe 2020 headline indicators, taking into account the role of Eurostat in ensuring statistical support for the strategy and in producing relevant data that meet high quality standards. To monitor the progress towards Europe 2020 strategy objectives, a set of eight main indicators and three sub-indicators were developed. The strategy sets the union targets, to be achieved by 2020, while Member States commit their national targets in the National Reform Programmes. The publication presents data on EU-27 aggregates, individual Member States and, where available, on the EFTA and the EU Candidate Countries, United States and Japan.
