Know your policy, know your data

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is a call to leave no one behind, placing men and women at the core of sustainable and inclusive development. This web portal includes tools to strengthen the capacity of policymakers to identify the furthest behind and to design policies that reduce multiple dimensions of inequality.

Know your data: Leave No One Behind database

To identify population groups with the lowest - and highest - access to a number of basic services and opportunities, the classification and regression tree (CART) methodology is used. This statistical algorithm splits the population into groups with significantly different access levels, based on a combination of shared circumstances that households or individuals have in common, but no control over. In response to the recent pandemic, an additional composite indicator to assess vulnerability to take protective measures against infection from COVID-19 has been included in the database.
