The analysis in the report reviews trends and directions of the gaps between disadvantaged and advantaged groups, to assert whether disadvantaged groups have been effectively included in development. It focuses on three key areas of socioeconomic development:
education (measured by secondary education completion), decent work (measured by fulltime employment) and income (measured by annualized, real household income).2 These three indicators also reflect achievements in three of the six Sustainable Development Goals under review by the High-Level Political Forum in 2019 (Goal 4, Goal 8, Goal 10)
