More than two billion of the world’s population still live below the poverty line, with 780 million people remaining in extreme poverty. Despite sustained wealth creation in recent years, this presents a huge risk to the global economy as migration, revolution, conflict, disaffected youth and unemployment continue to fracture societies.
Working with donors, investors and businesses, we’re helping tackle global poverty and rising inequality through:
- Encouraging and advocating responsible business behaviour
- Profitable business models that address the needs of employees, consumers and producers
- Inclusive capital markets that are more attractive for foreign investors
- Equality of opportunity for all, including more empowered women in the workforce
- Creating more (and better) jobs for poorer people
- Introducing recognition and protection for people in the informal economy
