SDGs 10
Reduced Inequalities 減少不平等

Income inequality is on the rise—the richest 10 percent have up to 40 percent of global income whereas the poorest 10 percent earn only between 2 to 7 percent. If we take into account population growth inequality in developing countries, inequality has increased by 11 percent.

Income inequality has increased in nearly everywhere in recent decades, but at different speeds. It’s lowest in Europe and highest in the Middle East.

These widening disparities require sound policies to empower lower income earners, and promote economic inclusion of all regardless of sex, race or ethnicity.

Income inequality requires global solutions. This involves improving the regulation and monitoring of financial markets and institutions, encouraging development assistance and foreign direct investment to regions where the need is greatest. Facilitating the safe migration and mobility of people is also key to bridging the widening divide.

收入不平等正在上升--最富有的10%的人擁有全球收入的40%，而最貧窮的10%的人只獲得2%至7%的收入。如果我們考慮到發展中國家的人口增長不平等，不平等已經增加了11%。

近幾十年來，幾乎所有地方的收入不平等都在增加，但速度不同。它在歐洲最低，在中東最高。

這些不斷擴大的差距需要健全的政策，以增強低收入者的能力，並促進所有人的經濟包容，不分性別、種族或民族。

收入不平等需要全球性的解決方案。這涉及到改善對金融市場和機構的監管和監督，鼓勵發展援助和外國直接投資到需求最大的地區。為人們的安全遷移和流動提供便利，也是彌合不斷擴大的鴻溝的關鍵。
