正文(英文) | Participants at side event “Homelessness, SDG 1 and Sustainable Recovery from COVID19: Poverty left behind”, organised this month, agreed that lack of standardized data collection methodologies on homelessness hampers the reporting process for all SDGs, specially SDG1 – end poverty -- and the sustainable and resilient recovery from COVID-19. The July 6th online gathering, organized by UN-Habitat and the Institute of Global Homelessness, aimed at bettering understanding the extent of the impact of the absence of such methodologies in the international community’s ability to follow-up and review progress made in achieving SDGs. The event was held on the sidelines of the High Level Political Forum, the main UN platform on sustainable development, which has a central role in the follow-up and the review of SDG’s progress. The recording can be accessed here. “We cannot build back better from the pandemic and deliver on the Agenda 2030, if we do not commit to end homelessness. We cannot do so if we do not work together, toward strengthened data collection methodologies on homelessness,” UN-Habitat Executive Director Maimunah Mohd Sharif told the audience in her opening remarks. Dame Louise Casey, chair of the Institute of Global Homelessness, stressed that the COVID-19 pandemic has indeed shown the enormous gap between the existing data and the used data in cities, communities, countries. She also stressed that producing data on homelessness is important for several reasons, including being able to insert problematic topics onto the political agenda, identifying the nature and the extent of the problem, and targeting and monitoring success of actions. Summing up the discussion, Shipra Narang Suri, Chief of the Urban Practices Branch of UN-Habitat and moderator of the event, highlighted the following take away points:
The event will feed into the discussion of the Global Homelessness Data Initiative, the first global project to support homelessness enumeration which has been jointly undertaken by UN-Habitat and the Institute of Global Homelessness. |
