3. Exploring the Inclusive Agenda
The UN’s inclusive agenda seeks to be mindful of not only those most in need, but all people regardless of location, sex, gender, age, sexuality, or religious beliefs. This means that in order to build success, it is important to know how to navigate and combat ideological differences as much as external ones.
Therefore, it is important to explore the causes and consequences of disparities and the methods and means to bridge them. In particular, it is paramount to recognize how different forms of systemic discrimination and exclusion exacerbate and intersect with poverty and inequality. Actions range from comprehensive national surveys to the implementation of policies designed to close such gaps and fairly distribute public services.
- Research the identity groups and their history of exclusion & disenfranchisement.
- Invest in local governance and represent different communities in decision-making.
- Encourage greater accountability and transparency in decision-making.
- Leverage existing data sources to understand the consequences of exclusion.
- Advocate for national laws that promote non-discrimination.
