We are behind you toward #ZeroPoverty2030 Visit: www.zeropoverty2030.org The last two decades have been the most successful in history in the fight against poverty: the share of people living in extreme poverty has been cut in half worldwide, from 43% in 1990 to under 20% today. However, it is unacceptable that more than one billion people still live in extreme poverty. Ending extreme poverty in our lifetimes is a difficult but achievable goal. Now is the time to take action! We are behind you toward #ZeroPoverty2030
