1.2 From Copenhagen to the Millennium Declaration: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| In 1995, the Copenhagen Social Summit put the “people’s agenda”
back into the forefront of international policy.
By stressing the interlinked
challenges of poverty, unemployment and social exclusion as central to a

1.14 Our common challenge: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| Poverty is not just a problem of the poor. It is a challenge for all defenders
of social justice and all seekers of sustainable growth. The goal of a
stable and prosperous world economy is only possible if the productivity and
consumer power of all its citizens are realized. A successful drive to raise the
consuming power of the majority of the world’s population, particularly
those on the lowest incomes, is fundamental to the broadening and deepening
of markets – the lifeline of enterprise and growth. Only when the poor
become real consumers will the economy become truly global. |

3.6 Securing incomes: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| Societies at all levels of development face the challenge of organizing
systems to provide security against contingencies such as sickness, accident,
death of the main breadwinner, disability, old age, maternity and unemployment
that make individuals, families and communities vulnerable to poverty.
Through solidarity and fair burden sharing, social security systems contribute
to human security, dignity, equity and social justice. They are also a foundation
for political inclusion, empowerment and the development of
democracy. Half of the world’s population is excluded from any type of
social security protection, with the rate of coverage varying from almost
100 per cent in some industrialized countries to less than 10 per cent in the
poorest developing countries. |
