Eradicating poverty in all its forms and in any context

       ​

To this end, Agenda 2030 targets the peripheral segments of society and encourages the transformation of society in a direction that will ensure a dignified and prosperous life for its citizens. Poverty eradication approaches proposed to achieve this goal include reducing the number of people at high risk of poverty and promoting social inclusion.
