How Can We Build a World With Equity and Justice for All?

Without equal rights and fair systems, people living in poverty lack the protections and resources to live peacefully and safely. Global Citizen’s Recovery Plan for the World calls for global justice-centered approaches to COVID-19 relief to help end extreme poverty. You can join us and take action on this issue here.
Ending extreme poverty won’t be possible in a world where people aren’t afforded the same rights or treatment by the legal system because of their identity or socioeconomic background.
