Paragraph
Paragraph text
States should make a genuine commitment to the standard of leaving no one behind by collecting disaggregated data. To monitor the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals, it will be important to improve the availability of, and access to, data and statistics disaggregated by income, gender, age, race, ethnicity, migratory status, disability, geographic location and other characteristics relevant in national contexts to support the monitoring of the implementation of the Goals. The goal indicators should include the use of data from the existing mechanisms for monitoring compliance with human rights standards, especially the universal periodic review mechanism of the Human Rights Council and reviews of compliance with the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination.
