世界各地越来越多的城市正在参与联合国可持续发展目标（SDG）。怎么做，为什么？我们提供了可持续发展目标的“本地化”的行动研究项目在英国的布里斯托市的批判性反思。通过与当地政府和非政府利益相关者的研究合作，我们支持将可持续发展目标纳入当地政策和城市监测工作。将千年发展目标纳入地方决策主要是一个“宣传”过程，通过大学-城市伙伴关系支持的“嵌入式宣传”形式实现。我们发现，千年发展目标具有地方号召力，是建立国际城市网络的机制，并被城市利用，通过接受国际认可的政策议程来表明全球抱负和进步身份。需要新的方法和框架来监测可持续发展目标，以充分实现全球政策中正在出现的“国家以下转向”。
An increasing number of cities around the world are engaging with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). How and why? We provide a critical reflection on SDG 'localization' derived from an action research project in the city of Bristol, UK. Through a research partnership with local government and non-governmental stakeholders we supported integration of the SDGs into local policy and urban monitoring efforts. Embedding the Goals in local policy making was largely a process of 'translation', which was achieved through a form of 'embedded advocacy' supported by a university-city partnership. We found that the Goals have local convening power, serve as a mechanism for building international city networks, and are instrumentalized by cities to signal global ambitions and progressive identities by embracing an internationally sanctioned policy agenda. New methods and frameworks for monitoring the SDGs are needed to fully realize the emerging 'subnational turn' in global policy.
