As progress across the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) remains intrinsically linked to child protection, development, and survival, this report focuses specifically on child-related SDG indicators, the Dominican national targets attached to them, and the gaps between global SDG commitments and the Dominican Republic’s own SDG-aligned national targets and policy commitments for children. This report prioritizes indicators directly linked to children by mapping where child-related SDG indicators are on track, off track, or missing from national monitoring systems. Evidence-based recommendations are organized around strengthening data governance and closing indicator-level gaps, aligning national monitoring systems with child-rights-based approaches. It is intended to support UNICEF-DR and government partners in identifying where children are being left behind and where targeted policy action and investment can have the greatest impact before 2030.
