Eradicating poverty in all its forms remains one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. While the number of people living in extreme poverty dropped by more than half between 1990 and 2015, too many are still struggling for the most basic human needs. As of 2015, about 736 million people still lived on less than US$1.90 a day; many lack food, clean drinking water and sanitation. Rapid growth in countries such as China and India has lifted millions out of poverty, but progress has been uneven. Women are more likely to be poor than men because they have less paid work, education, and own less property.

736 million people still live in extreme poverty.

10 percent of the world’s population live in extreme poverty, down from 36 percent in 1990.

Some 1.3 billion people live in multidimensional poverty.

Half of all people living in poverty are under 18.

One person in every 10 is extremely poor.

In view of foregoing, Ismaili Karimabad Boy Scouts Unit, Wolverine Patrol has taken multiple initiatives like: Wall of Help, Exchanging Skills, Discussion of Sustainable LIfe and To End Poverty

The SDGs are a bold commitment to finish what we started, and end poverty in all forms and dimensions by 2030
