Heading - Global XVII

SDG - 1 No Poverty
Aim: End poverty in all its forms everywhere

Key Targets - Eradicate Extreme Poverty: By 2030, extreme poverty for


everyone everywhere will be eradicated, currently measured as people living on
less than $1.25 a day.

1. Reduce Poverty Rates: Reduce by at least half the proportion of men,


women, and children of all ages living in poverty in all its dimensions
according to national definitions.
2. Implement Social Protection Systems: Ensure that all people have equal
rights to economic resources, as well as access to basic services, ownership,
and control over land property, and natural resources, under national laws.
3. Build Resilience: Build the resilience of those who are most vulnerable to
climate-related extreme events and other economic, social, and
environmental shocks and disasters.
4. Mobilize Resources: Substantially increase the resources available to end
poverty and ensure that development strategies are inclusive of poor and
marginalized groups.

Progress and Challenges

Progress:
Global Reduction: Since 2000, the global rate of extreme poverty has
significantly declined, with hundreds of millions of people lifted out of
poverty.
Social Protection: Many countries have expanded social protection systems,
including cash transfer programs and social safety nets.
Innovative Solutions: Advances in technology and data collection have
improved the ability to target and address poverty more effectively.

Challenges:
Inequality: Income inequality within and between countries continues to be
a major barrier to poverty eradication.
Conflict and Climate Change: Armed conflicts, climate change, and natural
disasters disproportionately affect the poor and can reverse progress made.
Economic Disruptions: Economic shocks, such as those caused by the
COVID-19 pandemic, have pushed many people back into poverty and
strained resources.

Key Organizations and Initiatives


United Nations Development Programme (UNDP): Supports countries in
achieving SDG 1 through various poverty reduction and development
programs.
World Bank: Provides financial and technical assistance to developing
countries for poverty reduction projects.
International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD): Focuses on
improving the livelihoods of rural people and promoting sustainable
agriculture.
Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs): Numerous NGOs work on the
ground to provide aid, advocate for policy changes, and implement poverty
alleviation programs.

Conclusion
SDG 1 represents a critical and ambitious goal within the broader framework of
the 2030 Agenda. Achieving "No Poverty" requires a comprehensive and
collaborative approach, addressing both immediate needs and long-term
systemic issues. Continued progress relies on global solidarity, innovative
solutions, and a commitment to leaving no one behind.
