SDG #10 is to “Reduce inequality within and among countries.”
Within SDG #10 are 10 targets, of which we here focus on Target 10.3:
Ensure equal opportunity and reduce inequalities of outcome, including by eliminating discriminatory laws, policies and practices and promoting appropriate legislation, policies and action in this regard
Target 10.3 has one indicator:
Indicator 10.3.1: Proportion of population reporting having personally felt discriminated against or harassed in the previous 12 months on the basis of a ground of discrimination prohibited under international human rights law
Only a couple dozen countries have data for this indicator. Among these, the country reporting the highest rates of discrimination were in Tuvalu. There, a third of the population felt discriminated against in the previous year. Other countries reporting between a third and a quarter of the population reporting the same include:
Switzerland
Moldova
Israel
Central African Republic
Malawi
Zimbabwe
By contrast, the countries with rates below 5% include Vietnam, Cuba, Belarus, and Finland. The former two are communist countries, Belarus is in transition from one and Finland is social democratic.
