Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Indicator 5.6.2 is the “Number of countries with laws and regulations that guarantee full and equal access to women and men aged 15 years and older to sexual and reproductive health care, information, and education.” This indicator plays a key role in tracking global progress toward achieving gender equity and empowerment, ensuring its validity is essential. Significant challenges related to the indicator’s calculation have been noted, which have important implications for the indicator’s validity in measuring progress towards meeting the SDG target. Recommendations have been made to revise the scoring of the indicator. This study examines the indicator’s validity by proposing a revision to the indicator’s calculation that addresses these global concerns and comparing the resulting values.
