Lead and supporting government bodies:
- The Prime Minister has taken the lead in coordinating and managing the strategy, helped by the Ministry for the Environment, Land and Sea and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Strategic framework:
- In October 2017, Italy published a National Strategy on Sustainable Development that covers the period from 2017 to 2030.
- The National Strategy on Sustainable Development is directly inspired by the SDGs and their targets. It sets non-numerical objectives for Italy and highlights important tools for achieving them in areas that relate to Agenda 2030's five "Ps": people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnership.
- It will refer to the annual National Reform Programme, which takes into account long-term objectives.
Implementation of Sustainable Development Goals:
SDG implementation is coordinated by a directorate attached to the Prime Minister's Office.
