A/HRC/31/31 rural and urban areas, gender and social groups. The system of indicators to monitor and evaluate the implementation of the Comprehensive Growth and Poverty Reduction Strategy includes: (a) reduction; (b) (c) Strategy; Indicators to assess the results of economic development and poverty Indicators to monitor and evaluate the inputs of the Strategy; Indicators to monitor and evaluate the results of the objectives of the (d) Indicators to assess the impacts of each programme, strategy towards the poor and society as a whole. This system is specifically developed for each region, province, urban, rural areas, and gender. Some indicators will be specified by ethnic and social groups and economic areas. 17. In the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the Equality and Human Rights Commission, in partnership with the Scottish Human Rights Commission, has worked on the development of the Human Rights Measurement Framework for England, Scotland and Wales. The framework aims to provide a set of indicators to measure human rights progress and help the Commission in fulfilling its monitoring and reporting mandate, including to Parliament. Its work includes extensive consultations with a range of government agencies and human rights and civil society organizations, as well as maintaining a dedicated website for online consultations. The indicators developed come from varied sources of data, including alternative sources such as events-based data collected by human rights organizations and United Nations human rights mechanisms. The indicators developed have been used in the Commission’s latest report Is Britain Fairer? in relation to equality of opportunity and freedom from unlawful discrimination and harassment. Detailed information on indicators and their analysis are available by “domain”, namely: life; health; physical security; legal security; education; standard of living; productive and valued activities; individual, family and social life; identity, expression and self-respect; and participation, influence and voice. A special effort was made to measure disparities, drawing from a range of data disaggregated by age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation. Evidence is also presented for people who are in vulnerable positions, such as asylum seekers and people resident or detained in public and private institutions, including children in foster care and homeless persons.16 18. Building on its experience in conducting population surveys in the field of human rights, the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights is developing the first European Union-wide Fundamental Rights Survey to collect comparable trend data on people’s experiences of rights in practice, and their opinions concerning the protection and realization of rights. The survey will address key questions for understanding people’s various experiences of rights as “everyday rights”, such as questions on use of information technology and data protection, equality of treatment in accessing various goods and services, consumer rights and knowledge about where to go when seeking a solution to a rights violation, for example, knowledge about equality bodies and national data protection authorities.17 16 17 See “Human Rights Measurement Framework: Prototype panels, indicator set and evidence base” (available at www.equalityhumanrights.com/about-us/our-work/human-rights/human-rightsmeasurement-framework); and Is Britain Fairer?
