Reduced Inequalities

Reduced Inequalities: 4 projects

““As long as poverty, injustice and gross inequality persist in our world, none of us can truly rest. ””

— Nelson Mandela

With the richest 10 percent earning up to 40 percent of total income, inequality is on the rise – by 11 per cent in developing countries when taking account the growth of the population. Income inequality is a global problem that requires global solutions. These widening disparities require the adoption of sound policies to empower the bottom percentile of income earners and promote economic inclusion of all regardless of sex, race or ethnicity. We support charities addressing disparities in the fields of access to medical aid with MSF, shelter with CARE International, business opportunities with FiveOneLabs, and basic needs with GiveDirectly.
