orientation, race,class, ethnicity, religion and opportunity
continue topersist across the world,within and among
countries.
Inequality threatens longterm social and economicdevelopment, harms
poverty reduction and destroys people’s sense of fulfilment and self-worth.
This, in turn, can breed crime, disease andenvironmental degradation

Greater efforts are needed to eradicate extreme poverty
and hunger, and invest morein health, education,social
protection and decent jobs especiallyfor young
people,migrants and othervulnerable communities.

including food ,medicines, biofuels and
others products.

stagnates social progress.

between men and womenin their Constitutions but 52have
yet to take this step.

your female classmates to do the same and fight for your
right to access sexual and reproductive health services.

and girls to achieve gender equality and embrace
healthy,respectful relationships.

INSTITUTIONS

whatever their ethnicity, faith or sexual orientation.
