HIGHLIGHTS OF RESULTS by CEDAW, CESCR and the UPR. In addition to the activity-specific indicators, the road map contains appropriate SDG indicators, which will enhance the mutual reinforcement of human rights and SDG reporting, thereby setting an example of a good practice for other Central Asian States. In Uzbekistan, UN Human Rights, through the UNCT, advised State authorities on developing national SDG indicators, which include supplementary human rights indicators to strengthen the implementation of SDGs that are aligned with international human rights law. OHCHR delivered a training on an HRBA to SDGs for the members of the expert group of the national SDG coordination body. The training session helped to enhance expertise at the national level and encouraged discussions about improving national SDG indicators from the human rights perspective. D8 National institutions, assisted by communities, systematically collect, disaggregate and use data relevant for advancing human rights when they monitor and implement the SDGs. The methodologies developed by UN Human Rights for SDG indicator 16.1.2, on the number of conflict-related deaths, and SDG indicators 10.3.1/16.b.1, on the percentage of the population experiencing discrimination on grounds prohibited by international law, were endorsed by the Inter-Agency and Expert Group on SDG Indicators, which is composed of Member States. This result increases potential opportunities for OHCHR to further mainstream human rights obligations and the prevention of human rights violations into the implementation and accountability framework of the SDGs at country, regional and global levels. We also supported the development of methodologies to monitor and collect data on the national implementation of human rights education, including through the work of UNESCO, in the context of SDG target 4.7 and the World Programme for Human Rights Education.
