After the United Nations' Summit of the Future, where world leaders highlighted the need to deliver a better present and safeguard the future, it is clear that women and girls will need to be at the heart of the new Pact for the Future.

However, the new report from the UN Department of Economic Affairs and UN Women, "The Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The Gender Snapshot 2023," shows there is much work to be done. The document provides a comprehensive analysis of the current state of gender equality across all 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and highlights prevailing trends, gaps, and recent setbacks on the journey towards achieving gender equality by 2030.
To support the UN in its efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) amid interconnected crises, UN DESA will host a Global Policy Dialogue on 8 October highlighting the key messages of the Gender Snapshot. The dialogue will be divided into two panels that will draw on the report's key findings and recommendations in the hope of catalyzing transformations at the necessary scale and speed, particularly in relation to achieving SDG 5, Gender Equality.
This dialogue is made possible by the UN Peace and Development Trust Fund.
