Three Resources for SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities

Imagine a world where everyone is treated fairly regardless of gender, age, ethnicity, religious beliefs, economic status or location. Social and economic development, poverty and lack of access to resources are all influenced by inequality. Everyone deserves the same chance to thrive wherever they are around the world. Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 10 addresses these issues and helps you bring them into your classroom.

So, what can young people do to help achieve SDG 10 around the world? Here are a few free resources to help you get started!

What is the difference between equal and equitable?

This infographic helps explain the difference between the terms equal and equitable. Equal typically means something is the same for everyone, while equitable denotes fairness.

Then, use the resources in the course listed above to take the conversation even deeper about equality around the world.
