UN Women: Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals- The gender snapshot

Updated: Feb 13, 2021

In this year’s edition of “Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The gender snapshot”, UN Women brings together the latest facts on gender equality across all 17 Goals, to underscore the progress made and interrupted due to COVID-19.



Here is a snapshot of #gender#equality across the Sustainable Development Goals :


  • The COVID-19 pandemic reveals and exacerbates fault lines of inequality

  • Women spend 3x as many hours as men each day in unpaid care and domestic work. COVID-19 is adding to women's unpaid care workloads

  • School closures are likely to increase gender gaps in education and rates of child marriage

  • Manufacturing jobs held by women tend to offer little security and are now at risk of disappearing altogether


and more...


💡 According to the 16th development goal, women’s full, equal and meaningful participation will be crucial as the world ‘builds back better’ from the pandemic.
