SDG 10 aims to reduce inequality within and between countries in various dimensions such as income, health, and access to resources. Evidence shows that children in poorer populations are more likely to die young and persons with disabilities face higher health costs. Women also tend to have lower incomes and representation. Targets to reduce inequality include increasing income growth for poorer segments, promoting inclusion, ensuring equal opportunities, and adopting policies to achieve greater equality through fiscal and social protections. Reducing inequality requires efforts like expanding education and access to capital, implementing progressive taxation, ensuring non-discrimination, and addressing the drivers of migration and hazards faced by vulnerable groups.
2. “Equality is the state of satisfaction achieved in
the absence of any unfair differentiation.”
SDG 10 aims for the upgrade of income equality within a country and
beyond, on various bases. The goal also addresses inequalities between
countries, migration and aid for development.
On various Basis;
on age , sex, disability, race , ethnicity, birth, religion or economic or
other status.
Inequality Means the disparities in the distribution of a given
measurement, which may be income, health, or any other material or
non-material assets.
3. FACT AND FIGURES
Evidence from developing countries shows that children in the poorest 20 per cent of the
populations are still up to three times more likely to die before their fifth birthday than
children in the richest quintiles.
Social protection has been significantly extended globally, yet persons with disabilities
are up to five times more likely than average to incur catastrophic health expenditures.
Despite overall declines in maternal mortality in most developing countries, women in
rural areas are still up to three times more likely to die while giving birth than women
living in urban centers.
Up to 30 per cent of income inequality is due to inequality within households, including
between women and men. Women are also more likely than men to live below 50 per
cent of the median income
Of the one billion population of persons with disabilities, 80 per cent live in developing
countries.
One in ten children is a child with a disability.
Only 28 per cent of persons with significant disabilities have access to disability benefits
globally, and only 1per cent in low-income countries.
