The results of the index show that, with just .11 years to go until 2030, nearly 40 percent of the world’s girls and women – 1.4 billion – live in countries .failing on gender equality. Overall the index finds that the world is furthest behind on gender equality issues related to public finance and better gender data (SDG 17), climate change (SDG 13), gender equality in industry and innovation (SDG 9), and the standalone gender equality goal (SDG 5).
