Icon of the Sustainable Development Goal 10 of the 2030 Agenda

SDG 10 embraces the principal of ‘no one left behind’, which is a cross-cutting theme that is ubiquitous in the 2030 Agenda. In the economic arena, this must begin with an improvement in the situation of the lower-income population, both in absolute and relative terms.

It aims to foster fiscal, wage and social protection policies that assure equal opportunities and less inequality in outcomes. But this objective also aims for social, economic and political inclusion for everyone, forging bonds and breaking down age, gender, class, ability, language, origin and sexual orientation barriers.
