Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The gender snapshot 2022

ମୁଖ୍ୟ ଆକର୍ଷଣ

Published in 2022, this report analyses the progress on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a set of 17 goals intended to decrease inequality across the world. The report specifically focusses on gender equality attained across SDGs.

This 31-page report includes data on SDGs and includes themes like climate change, education, participation in the workforce and access to clean food and water. It tracks various gender-related indicators and states that as low as 26 per cent of countries have a comprehensive structure in place which tracks budget allocations on gender.
