Global Goal 1: No Poverty
What is Poverty?
Poverty is a lack of resources that prevents people from meeting their basic needs. It's more than just money; it's about access to essentials like food, clean water, shelter, and healthcare.
That's why ending poverty is the first sustainable development goal. By addressing poverty, we can improve the lives of millions worldwide.
Why does it matter?
More than 700 million people still live in extreme poverty and are struggling to fulfil the most basic needs like health, education, and access to water and sanitation.
Eradicating poverty is not a task of charity, it’s an act of justice and the key to unlocking an enormous human potential. Together, we can feed the hungry, wipe out disease and give everyone in the world a chance to prosper and live a productive and rich life.
