A society's governing body adopts a resolution to embed SDGs into its governance. Which action best reflects good social governance in line with the SDG idea of 'leaving no one behind'?

The best action is adopting a policy for inclusive participation of marginalised beneficiaries in design and monitoring, with periodic reporting to members. This delivers inclusion, transparency and accountability, whereas restricting membership, hiding failures or concentrating power contradicts leaving no one behind.
