The Inequality Solutions website is a collaborative project between individuals and organizations who believe change is possible and care deeply about reducing inequality globally.
The portal is curated by the Pathfinders for Peaceful, Inclusive and Just Societies, in partnership with UNESCWA, and various other academic institutions, students, experts, and civil society groups.
About the Pathfinders for Peaceful, Inclusive and Just Societies
The Pathfinders is a cross-regional impact hub bringing together member states, as well as partners across international organizations, civil society, and the private sector committed to advancing the Sustainable Development Goal targets for peace, justice, inclusion, and equality (SDG16+). Co-founded and hosted by the NYU Center on International Cooperation, the Pathfinders work to accelerate delivery of SDG16+ through three “Grand Challenges:” Halving Global Violence, Justice for All, and addressing Inequality and Exclusion. Driven by research, evidence, and a multi-stakeholder approach, the Pathfinders act at international levels to support effective policy, advocacy, and convening for a world that is free of fear and violence.
