SDG Gender Index: One year on…

It is one year since we launched the SDG Gender Index in June 2019. The 2019 SDG Gender Index measures the state of gender equality aligned to 14 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 129 countries and 51 issues ranging from health, gender-based violence, climate change, decent work and others.

Even before COVID-19, no country had reached gender equality. We need data now more than ever on how this pandemic is affecting girls and women. Gender equality can’t wait.
