The Sustainable Development Goals Progress Chart 2021 presents a snapshot of global and regional progress <strong>to</strong>wards selected targets under <strong>the</strong> 17 Goals of <strong>the</strong> <strong>2030</strong> <strong>Agenda</strong> for Sustainable Development.<br />

The assessment is based on <strong>the</strong> most up-<strong>to</strong>-date data available. However, <strong>the</strong> full impact of <strong>the</strong> COVID-19 pandemic is not yet known. Moreover, since 2020, <strong>the</strong> pandemic has disrupted statistical<br />

operations worldwide, limiting <strong>the</strong> ability of many national statistical offices <strong>to</strong> deliver <strong>the</strong> data needed <strong>to</strong> moni<strong>to</strong>r progress on <strong>the</strong> Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<br />

The progress chart shows that <strong>the</strong> world was already off track in realizing <strong>the</strong> ambitions and fulfilling <strong>the</strong> commitments of <strong>the</strong> <strong>2030</strong> <strong>Agenda</strong>, even before COVID-19. As <strong>the</strong> pandemic continues <strong>to</strong><br />

unfold, it is also magnifying deeply rooted problems: insufficient social protection, weak<br />

AND OUTLOOK<br />

The progress chart presents two types of information: 1) a trend assessment using s<strong>to</strong>plight colours <strong>to</strong> measure progress <strong>to</strong>wards <strong>the</strong> target (from a baseline year <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> most recent data point), and<br />

2) a level assessment using a gauge meter <strong>to</strong> measure <strong>the</strong> current level of development with respect <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> distance from a target, using <strong>the</strong> latest data. The chart is based on a limited number of<br />

indica<strong>to</strong>rs and on information available as of June 2021. A baseline year of around 2015 or 2010 is used for <strong>the</strong> trend assessment. For most of <strong>the</strong> indica<strong>to</strong>rs, <strong>the</strong> latest available data are from 2019 <strong>to</strong><br />

2020; for a few indica<strong>to</strong>rs, <strong>the</strong> data are from 2017.<br />
