Inequality and Exclusion
Across the world, people are demanding action to tackle the rising inequalities and divisions that erode our societies and undermine human progress. National policies and international cooperation demonstrate that together we can build just and equal societies.
The Pathfinders' Grand Challenge on Inequality and Exclusion is a cross-regional alliance of countries, civil society, and multilateral partners seeking to identify practical, politically-viable solutions to combat inequality, exclusion, and divisions at the national and international level, and advocating for the achievement of the 2030 Agenda targets for more equitable and inclusive societies (SDG16+).
