Global crises including COVID-19, climate shocks, high prices, and fragility & conflict have pushed the world off-course to meet the first 2030 Sustainable Development Goalending #poverty in all its forms everywhere. Today, about 700 million people around the world subsist on less than $2.15 a day. Unless drastic action is taken, the outlook for reducing global poverty remains grim. On May 7, 2024, experts from academia, international organizations and civil society came together to bring new ideas on how to get back on track. Watch the video to learn more about working together to end poverty in all its forms everywhere. https://lnkd.in/eTE9fBCb

In developing nations, addressing climate action (SDG 13) without considering poverty eradication (SDG 1) is not feasible. The realities on the ground show that many people rely on traditional energy sources, like charcoal, not out of choice but necessity. Banning charcoal, as Dr. Johnstone Chikwanda highlights, is difficult without providing accessible, affordable alternatives. Many communities depend on charcoal for cooking and heating, and a sudden shift without economic and technological support would disproportionately harm the most vulnerable. To create sustainable change, we need holistic strategies that balance environmental goals with poverty alleviation.

🌍 Climate change and poverty are deeply connected. 🔄 The impacts of climate change disproportionately affect the most vulnerable communities. Those living in poverty often lack the resources to recover from climate disasters, making it harder for them to escape the cycle of poverty. We must recognize that tackling climate change also means addressing social inequality. 🌱 By investing in sustainable solutions and supporting those hit hardest, we can protect both our planet and its people. A sustainable future is one where no one is left behind. 💪 #ClimateChange #Poverty #Sustainability #SocialImpact #ClimateAction #Equity
