UN Unveils New Roadmap for Eradicating Poverty Beyond Growth
June 24th, 2026
This month, the UN Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights officially presented a landmark blueprint to the UN Human Rights Council: “Roadmap for Eradicating Poverty Beyond Growth.”
The new report calls for a fresh approach to ending extreme poverty—one that prioritizes human dignity, economic justice, and environmental sustainability.
The Roadmap for Eradicating Poverty Beyond Growth argues that reducing poverty requires more than increasing economic output. It highlights the need for policies that ensure basic economic security, strengthen care systems, create meaningful work, and address growing inequality.
At OMI JPIC, our commitment to human dignity reminds us that every person deserves access to the resources and opportunities needed to flourish. We invite you to learn more about this important initiative and the actions being proposed to help create a more just world.
