    Inequality matters

    "Socioeconomical gaps reflect unequal opportunity—people held back because of their gender, group identity, wealth or location. Such inequalities are unjust. They are also economically wasteful and socially destabilizing. Overcoming the structural forces that create and perpetuate extreme inequality is one of the most efficient routes for overcoming extreme poverty, enhancing the welfare of society and accelerating progress towards the Millenium Development Goals."

    Key actions

    1. Cooperation - Satisfy inmediate needs. Increase quantity and quality.
    2. Trade - Source of wealth. Needs to be fare with wealth distribution.
    3. Security - It is distracting attention and generating more inmediate needs.
