Phase IV: Mapping Indicators to International Instruments

The total number of disability indicators compiled is 115. Those indicators were mapped to all SDGs policy areas except the following four:

  • Goal 12. Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns;
  • Goal 13. Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts;
  • Goal 14. Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development;
  • Goal 15. Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss.

The indicators were also mapped to CRPD articles and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in the final stage. Table 4 provides a summary of interlinkages between the goals of the 2030 Agenda, articles of the CRPD[1] and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).[2] (see annex for description of articles).
