Asia Dalit Rights Forum

Introduction

Th is Dalit shadow report on Transforming Our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development informs the high-level political forum on progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by the Dalits in India. 

It is based on the global indicator framework developed by the UN’s Inter-Agency and Expert Group on Sustainable Development Goal Indicators, the national indicators developed by the Government of India (Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, MoS-PI) and those suggested by civil society organisations (CSOs). 

It provides an overview of India’s progress towards the 17 SDGs of the 2030 Agenda, from the Dalit perspective. Some indicators and targets could not be covered due to the lack of disaggregated data or because the relevant indicators are still to be fi nalised by MoSPI. Civil society has developed indicators for more goals and targets with more focus that more accurately refl ect the challenges ahead. Th e data presented are from government or similar sources.
