SDG 1: NO POVERTY

More than 3 billion people around the world live off $2.5 every day. In other words,
almost half of the humans on this planet live in poverty. Out of these people, 1.3 billion
have to survive in extreme poverty, or off $1.25 a day. It’s an unfortunate and sickening
truth, but poverty is prevalent around the globe.

Poverty cannot be eradicated without addressing the pervasive inequalities in incomes

and economic opportunities between and within countries, between rural and urban
areas, and between men and women. Reducing such inequalities will need to start
with improving access for the poor to productive resources, basic services and social
protection.

THE TARGETS

TARGET 1.1 ERADICATE EXTREME POVERTY

By 2030, eradicate extreme poverty for all people everywhere, currently measured as
people living on less than $1.25 a day.

TARGET 1.2 REDUCE POVERTY BY AT LEAST 50%

By 2030, reduce at least by half the proportion of men, women and children of all ages
living in poverty in all its dimensions according to national definitions.

TARGET 1.3 IMPLEMENT SOCIAL PROTECTION SYSTEMS

Implement nationally appropriate social protection systems and measures for all,
including floors, and by 2030 achieve substantial coverage of the poor and the
vulnerable.

TARGET 1.4 EQUAL RIGHTS TO OWNERSHIP, BASIC SERVICES,

TECHNOLOGY AND ECONOMIC RESOURCES

By 2030, ensure that all men and women, in particular the poor and the vulnerable,
have equal rights to economic resources, as well as access to basic services,
ownership and control over land and other forms of property, inheritance, natural
resources, appropriate new technology and financial services, including microfinance.

TARGET 1.5 BUILD RESILIENCE TO ENVIRONMENTAL, ECONOMIC AND

SOCIAL DISASTERS

By 2030, build the resilience of the poor and those in vulnerable situations and reduce
their exposure and vulnerability to climate-related extreme events and other economic,
social and environmental shocks and disasters.

TARGET 1.A MOBILIZE RESOURCES TO IMPLEMENT POLICIES TO END

POVERTY
Ensure significant mobilization of resources from a variety of sources, including
through enhanced development cooperation, in order to provide adequate and
predictable means for developing countries, in particular least developed countries, to
implement programmes and policies to end poverty in all its dimensions.

TARGET 1.B CREATE PRO-POOR AND GENDER-SENSITIVE POLICY

FRAMEWORKS

Create sound policy frameworks at the national, regional and international levels,
based on pro-poor and gender-sensitive development strategies, to support
accelerated investment in poverty eradication actions.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE?

 The SDG Fund response

The SDG Fund supports initiatives that tackle poverty from a multisectoral perspective
and address the following dimensions:
1. Create opportunities for good and decent jobs and secure livelihoods
2. Support inclusive and sustainable business practices
3. Promote better government policies and fair and accountable public
institution
In times of droughts, farmers struggle to grow crops. Without any crops to sell, they
gain no profit, and as such, fall into poverty.
When extreme flooding or an earthquake occurs, people are evacuated from the
affected area, leaving behind their homes, jobs, and property. Often, they are not
immediately compensated for their losses, and due to that, they suffer from a state of
poverty.
