2. Objectives 1
Proposals for including inequality in the Post-2015 Development Framework 2
Implications for monitoring progress on inequality reduction

3. Addressing Inequality in the Post 2015 Agenda - proposals
Inequality as a stand alone Goal.
Income inequality
Gender inequality
Social exclusion
Inequality reflected in targets across different Goals.
Universal or ‘zero’ targets
Interim progress targets
Focus on inter-group inequalities
No agreed upon measures to track inequality of opportunities.

4. Implications for Monitoring Progress
Mainstreaming inequality targets across different Goals is a complex exercise
Arriving at consensus on “right” targets and indicators is a political exercise
Significant efforts will be needed to improve the availability of data to monitor progress of disadvantaged groups and HIs.
Significant efforts will be needed to develop measures to track progress in inequality of opportunities – going beyond composite indices.
