POVERTY ALLEVIATION
Despite decades of development efforts and gains in such indicators
as life expectancy and national product, both the gap between rich
and poor nations and inequalities within nations have widened in
recent years. Serious economic, social, gender and other inequities
persist and hamper efforts to improve the quality of life for
hundreds of millions of people. Approximately 1 billion people live
in poverty and the number continues to mount.
