## Management Comment 

The MFED agreed to the observation that at the time of audit they had not intensified awareness about the SDGs. Nonetheless, MFED pointed out that the Ministry in collaboration with UNDP had developed the National SDGs Communication Strategy, which outlines all the channels of communication for effective reach. Further management highlighted that SDGs had not been translated into Setswana. Rather a local youth organisation called Youth Alliance for Leadership and Development in Africa (YALDA) Botswana had translated the snapshot of the goals as seen in the official logo/poster. As embodied in the communication strategy, the SDGs together with their underlying targets and indications will be translated fully into Setswana, including other advocacy materials.
