Everyone deserves to live a life free from poverty and a chance to thrive. Yet, millions of people around the world are unable to pay for basic necessities, including food, housing, school or medical care.

Ending poverty is key to achieving the Global Goals, our blueprint for a better & more sustainable future.

"Let us renew our commitment to a better world for all. Let us consign poverty to the pages of history," said UN Secretary-General António Guterres on Monday's International Day for the Eradication of Poverty.
