The world is more than halfway through the United Nations' 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, yet only 17% of measurable targets for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are on track, highlighting the urgency for a course correction.
Fewer than half of the world's countries have been able to report internationally comparable data on key goals since 2015, creating significant barriers for effective decision-making.
The most marginalized groups are hard to reach, with 40% of countries struggling to collect data on migrants, indicating critical gaps in representation and understanding.
Citizen data can fill gaps and make data and policy more inclusive, but requires collaboration between NSOs, civil-society organizations, academia, and communities.
