A/HRC/39/51 55. The Government of Guatemala reported46 that it had carried out a process of socialization, consultation, validation and technical analysis in order to adapt the 2030 Agenda to the national context and the National Development Plan. That process resulted in a strategy to integrate the Sustainable Development Goals with the Plan and the National Development Policy “K’atun Nuestra Guatemala 2032”. The participation of the population in the areas of development and public management was ensured through the system of development councils, which allowed the needs of citizens at the community and national levels to be raised with the government authorities. Those needs were incorporated into national planning and converted into action through municipal plans. 56. The above mechanisms are examples of promoting the participation of different groups, including those in situations of vulnerability, in the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals and, more generally, in decision-making processes. However, the information provided by States is limited by the format of the voluntary national reviews and the time constraints of the process. 57. According to the global indicator framework, 47 the following indicators are to be used to measure inequality within countries: growth rates of household expenditure or income per capita among the bottom 40 per cent of the population and the total population (10.1.1); proportion of people living below 50 per cent of median income, by sex, age and persons with disabilities (10.2.1); proportion of population reporting having personally felt discriminated against or harassed in the previous 12 months on the basis of a ground of discrimination prohibited under international human rights law (10.3.1); and labour share of GDP, comprising wages and social protection transfers (10.4.1). The indicators, however, are largely insufficient to track progress in eliminating discriminatory laws, policies and practices and promoting appropriate legislation, policies and action in this regard. 58. The global indicator framework contains a larger number of indicators to measure the progress towards achieving gender equality and empowering all women and girls. Countries must evaluate: whether or not legal frameworks are in place to promote, enforce and monitor equality and non-discrimination on the basis of sex (5.1.1); proportion of everpartnered women and girls aged 15 years and older subjected to physical, sexual or psychological violence by a current or former intimate partner in the previous 12 months, by form of violence and by age (5.2.1); proportion of women and girls aged 15 years and older subjected to sexual violence by persons other than an intimate partner in the previous 12 months, by age and place of occurrence (5.2.2); proportion of women aged 20–24 years who were married or in a union before age 15 and before age 18 (5.3.1); proportion of girls and women aged 15–49 years who have undergone female genital mutilation/cutting, by age (5.3.2); proportion of time spent on unpaid domestic and care work, by sex, age and location (5.4.1); proportion of seats held by women in (a) national parliaments and (b) local governments (5.5.1); proportion of women in managerial positions (5.5.2); proportion of women aged 15–49 years who make their own informed decisions regarding sexual relations, contraceptive use and reproductive health care (5.6.1); Proportion of total agricultural population with ownership or secure rights over agricultural land, by sex (5.a.1 (a)); proportion of individuals who own a mobile telephone, by sex (5.b.1). 59. While the above indicators look at a number of areas, notably they do not cover issues such as availability of mechanisms for access to information or conditions for participation of women or other groups in a situation of vulnerability in decision-making related to issues that concern them. Furthermore, they do not measure, for example, the number and success rates of anti-discrimination complaints. Such additional qualitative assessment would go a long way towards promoting both equality and participation. To move beyond the slogan of leaving no one behind, additional efforts should be invested in tracking multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination 48 and the scaling up measures undertaken to address these. 46 47 48 Submission of 23 April 2018.
