The Sustainable Development Goals Report 2024

The Sustainable Development Report (SDR) reviews progress made each year on the Sustainable Development Goals since their adoption by the 193 UN Member States in 2015. Published on the eve of the UN Summit of the Future, the Sustainable Development Report 2024 recommends a set of key reforms to the UN system to meet the challenges of the 21st century. This year’s edition also presents a new index of countries’ support to UN-based multilateralism and discusses long-term pathways to attain sustainable food and land systems. The Sustainable Development Goals Report 2024 makes for sobering reading. It finds that only 17 per cent of the SDG targets are on track, nearly half are showing minimal or moderate progress, and progress on over one third has stalled or even regressed. The scarring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, escalating conflicts, geopolitical tensions, and growing climate chaos are hitting SDG progress hard.

Key Insights and Programmatic Recommendations on the Project-level Women’s Empowerment in Agriculture Index (pro-WEAI) 2025

This report provides a summary of the baseline data from the pro-WEAI collected under the Nav Tejaswini project. It includes the following information: (i) overall context of India and Maharashtra with respect to gender equality and women’s empowerment; (ii) background of the project; and (iii) findings of women’s empowerment across dimensions of pro-WEAI and proposed recommendations for the project to improve the scores. Women’s empowerment and gender equality is one of the main agenda of Government of India to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. While the government measures have contributed to progress on GEWE and climate resilience in recent years, social, cultural and institutional barriers continue to restrict women’s economic and social empowerment.

Global Outlook 2025 - Building Resilient Systems for Children’s Futures

For the purposes of this report, we define national ‘systems’ as governmental networks of structures, institutions, policies and processes that enable the delivery of critical services for children. A system comprises human resources, finance, laws and policies, administration/ governance, monitoring and data collection. Systems operate on foundational principles – including social contracts and rule-of-law commitments – which anchor their legitimacy and effectiveness. Government systems interact with different actors – civil society, communities, private sector, families and children, those working at subnational or national level and, in some cases, those working internationally.

World Employment and Social Outlook Trends 2025

In 2024, global employment expanded in line with a growing labour force, keeping the global unemployment rate steady at 5 per cent, similar to that of 2023. At the same time, employment growth remained too weak to have a significant impact on persistent decent work deficits around the world. Young people, especially, continue to face much higher unemployment rates – around 12.6 per cent – with few signs of improvements. With the return to pre-pan-demic levels of informality and working poverty, the job recovery has lost much of its ability to generate further improvements and close the gap with the targets of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As the economic and social outlook remains highly uncertain – with geopolitical frictions, rising costs of climate change, and unresolved sovereign debt risks – the resilience of labour markets is being tested. Low-income countries appear to be particularly vulnerable, since progress in decent work creation has been slowest in these countries.

Leaving No One Behind: Slum Households in Asia

This study investigates patterns of slum households across Asia, utilizing data from the Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) for Cambodia, India, and the Philippines. By applying the Classification and Regression Trees (CART) methodology, the research identifies demographic characteristics of households most susceptible to living in slums in urban areas, highlighting those who are the most disadvantaged. Additionally, the Dissimilarity Index is used to evaluate disparities in access to adequate housing, highlighting inequalities in opportunity among these groups. The findings reveal notable disparities within countries. Wealth emerges as the primary factor influencing households to live in slums, with households in the bottom 40 percent by wealth significantly more likely to occupy slum housing.
