Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The Gender Snapshot 2023

2023

This data publication from the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN-Women) presents the latest data on gender equality across each of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The report finds that the world is off track to attain gender equality by 2030, providing a snapshot of data for women and girls worldwide across indicators of poverty, education, violence, water and sanitation, discrimination, labor, and more. The authors break down each SDG and describe the challenges associated with each one in the context of gender equality. The 2023 report underscores that without urgent action, 340 million women and girls worldwide are at risk of living in extreme poverty by 2030, with growing risks spurred by climate change threatening progress toward gender equality. 

Accompanying the report are downloadable data sheets, which include country and regional data and figures from the report.
