Complementary Information: SDG Watch Europe is not a registered legal entity but a coalition of NGOs. Its Secretariat is hosted by the EEB (an organisation also on the Transparency Register). It does not have a separate budget or financial management but its staff and activities are covered by the EEB's funding sources. Through the EEB, SDG Watch Europe benefits indirectly from one Horizon 2020 project that covers its Secretariat and some core activities relevant for this registration. We estimate that the project's share for SDG Watch Europe activities is around 80K EUR per year. The other members, in particular the Steering Group members, contribute their time on a voluntary basis to SDG Watch Europe activities.
