Implement nationally appropriate social protection systems and measures for all, including floors, and by 2030 achieve substantial coverage of the poor and the vulnerable.By 2030, reduce at least by half the proportion of men, women and children of all ages living in poverty in all its dimensions according to national definitions.This involves targeting the most vulnerable, increasing basic resources and services, and supporting communities affected by conflict and climate-related disasters. The SDGs are a bold commitment to finish what we started, and end poverty in all forms and dimensions by 2030. New threats brought on by climate change, conflict and food insecurity, mean even more work is needed to bring people out of poverty. Progress has also been limited in other regions, such as South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, which account for 80 percent of those living in extreme poverty.
Women are more likely to be poor than men because they have less paid work, education, and own less property.
Rapid growth in countries such as China and India has lifted millions out of poverty, but progress has been uneven. While the number of people living in extreme poverty dropped by more than half between 19, too many are still struggling for the most basic human needs.Īs of 2015, about 736 million people still lived on less than US$1.90 a day many lack food, clean drinking water and sanitation.
Eradicating poverty in all its forms remains one of the greatest challenges facing humanity.
