SDG 1: No Poverty
“End poverty in all its forms everywhere.”
About This Goal
What is SDG 1: No Poverty?
SDG 1 calls for an end to poverty in all its forms— everywhere. More than 700 million people still live in extreme poverty, surviving on less than $2.15 a day. Poverty is not just about income; it includes lack of access to food, clean water, education, healthcare, and security. Schools are a proven lever— from providing meals and scholarships to teaching financial literacy and economic empowerment skills that break the cycle for generations.
