The UN adopted the Doha Political Declaration at the second World Summit for Social Development in Qatar on Tuesday, calling on countries to “integrate quality education as a core component of poverty reduction strategies.”
The Declaration encourages nations to implement poverty reduction policies that are sensitive to the needs of children and calls for the creation of jobs that provide a living wage through macroeconomic policies. These macroeconomic policies should consider the “circumstances of the country” and the how the private and the public sector contribute to the economy.
“While over a billion people have been lifted from poverty and access to health, education and social protection has expanded, he warned that today’s world faces “high uncertainty, divisions and widespread suffering,” said António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations in a press release.
The Declaration urges international corporation to provide necessary financial assistance and technical support to sustain job creation. In addition to job creation, the UN pledged to invest in quality vocational and digital literacy education for both youth and older adults.
The UN has promoted these measures due to a mixture of poverty, unemployment, and social exclusion in the 30 years since the first World Summit for Social Development. The Declaration supports UN 2030 Sustainable Development goals that create a “shared blueprint for peace and prosperity” for developed and developing countries alike.
