Ending extreme poverty and reducing relative poverty
By 2030 we will eradicate extreme poverty and reduce relative poverty through inclusive growth and decent work (Save the Children, 2013)
"On current trends, about 4% of people will be in absolute income poverty by 2030; but with slightly faster and more inclusive growth we could get to zero, eradicating absolute poverty the world over." (Save the Children, 2013)
Targets
- Eradicate extreme income poverty
- Pursue growth that is inclusive and sustainable, and provides opportunities for all
