Struggles to Reduce Social Inequality

Good evening viewers, now you are watching Global News. With me Dian will
accompany you in a few minutes ahead, and here’s the News for today.

Social and economic inequality is one of the significant challenges to achieving the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG 10, which aims to reduce inequality
within and between countries.

However, recent reports show an alarming increase in economic inequality, which


hinders progress towards a more just and inclusive society.

Recent data reveals a widening gap between the economically well-off and those living
in poverty. This gap is reflected in access to decent work, fair incomes, and opportunities to
improve their well-being.

One issue that exacerbates economic inequality is the lack of fair employment
opportunities. Many available jobs offer low wages, no social protection, or do not adhere to
decent work standards. This makes it difficult for low-income workers to break out of the
poverty cycle and achieve better welfare.

Growing economic inequality has a direct impact on achieving the SDGs, especially in
reducing poverty and inequality. These disparities can lead to unequal access to education,
decent housing, food, and quality healthcare, all of which are important in achieving
sustainable development goals.

Several efforts have been made to address economic and social inequality. Government
and non-governmental organization initiatives have focused on developing skills training
programs, increasing access to microcredit, empowering women, and creating inclusive
policies in the world of work.

However, complex challenges require broader and more collaborative measures to


address these inequalities.

Reducing social and economic inequality is a serious challenge to achieving the SDGs.

Close cooperation between governments, the private sector, civil society, and individuals is
needed to create equal opportunities.
Let's build a world where every individual has a fair chance to grow and participate in
development.

Well viewers that’s the News for today, I’m Dian Nur thank you for watching and see
you.
