There isn’t enough data to accurately measure progress on the SDGs. And where data does exist, it’s often incomplete, inaccurate, or fails to reflect the experiences of entire groups of people. “Accurate, timely and disaggregated data are vital for measuring progress towards the 17 SDGs and 169 associated targets” “Without high-quality data providing an evidence base, it will be impossible to truly understand where we are succeeding and falling short on the SDGs” “34 targets (20%) lack sufficient trend data or additional analysis” Source: UN Stats Sustainable Development Goals Report 2024
What is HLPF? HLPF is the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development, an annual UN meeting which brings together Member States along with civil society, government and other stakeholders to: • Track progress on all 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a full review of five. • Share what’s working and what’s not. • Push for stronger action where progress is too slow. • Amplify diverse voices, including those of governments, civil society, Indigenous peoples, and youth. HLPF was created to ensure that the SDGs don’t just sit on paper, but are actually acted on.
