As the world commemorates the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, on ‘Answering the decision to finish poverty’, we are reminded that there's still poverty in multiple dimensions everywhere. Eradicating poverty means expanding the richness of human life, instead of simply the richness of the economy during which citizenry live. this idea of human development championed by UNDP recognizes that income is merely a way . All people, everywhere need more choices and opportunities to measure the type of lives they value.

The steps taken by the UNDP (United Nations Development Program) to eradicate poverty and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals are as follows:

1) Facilitating job creation and entrepreneurship in agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, entertainment and other services will provide better and more sustainable economic opportunities for the 201 million people currently unemployed globally consistent with ILO. Targeted actions that reduce structural barriers are needed to achieve the Agenda 2030 objective of inclusive and sustainable economic process with full and productive employment and decent work for all and cater for the extra 2.7 million unemployed people globally in 2019.

2) Better access to quality education is proven to scale back inequality and poverty and needed by the 61 million children and 60 million adolescents currently not in class consistent with UNICEF. Providing quality social services including health, water and sanitation for all are critical hurdles to beat . These inequalities persist everywhere the planet thanks to discriminatory social institutions and practices and skewed distribution of services.

3) Breaking barriers that cause exclusion contributes to inclusive and equitable quality education, healthy lives, gender equality and more equality within and among countries.

4) Promoting the rights of persons with disabilities UNDP supported the establishment of the UN Partnership to
Promote the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, mobilizing over US$2.9 million to facilitate full implementation of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. UNDP also hosts the technical secretariat for the partnership.

5) Promoting inclusive globalization UNDP supports Least Developed Countries (LDCs) to profit from the improved Integrated Framework for trade-related technical assistance (EIF) programme, including review and diagnostics in Bhutan and South Sudan, capacity development in Chad, Lesotho and Sao Tome and Principe, and activities to integrate trade national policies in Burkina Faso, Cambodia and Zambia

6) Strengthening resource management for sustainable human development UNDP organized a policy dialogue with the govt of Guyana to supply policy options to policy makers on sustainable management of the extractive industries

AREA FOR IMPROVEMENT TO INCREASE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF UNDP

1) Though leadership and advocacy to advance the worldwide development agenda. Better measurement and monitoring of development conditions and poverty are going to be critical to understanding the problems , taking account of differences by gender, income, location and other non-income characteristics. Improved data, disaggregated appropriately, can enable policy analysis — including application of gender analysis, assessment of global climate change impacts and, where appropriate, analysis for conflict prevention — focused on the convergence between poverty, social equity, environmental and governance issues. UNDP also can prioritize collaboration within and out of doors the United Nations system — as an example , with the international financial institutions (IFIs) — on the post-2015 agenda and sustainable development goals (SDGs). Once agreed, the latter can become the first points of reference for UNDP’s thought leadership and advocacy work moving forward in order that we will still be a number one voice within the development debate in the least levels.

2) National development planning and policy reforms to rework productive capacities. this may mean using policy analysis to spot potential ‘big picture’ reforms to expand and diversify the productive base and increase value added, in order that employment are often generated and livelihoods created while tackling unsustainable patterns of production and consumption. Advisory work will tap into analysis and options that utilize UNDP’s particular strengths: a particular specialise in poverty eradication, medium- to long-term perspectives across sectors bringing together economic, environmental, social and governance issues, and sensitivity to the capacity requirements for transformational change. this may be complemented by strengthening of country skills and institutional capacity to style , monitor, coordinate and implement national vision documents and development plans also as associated policy reforms, including for green economy policies, where requested; identification of options for expanding investment for structural transformation through innovative approaches to public-private partnerships and increased domestic resource mobilization; and utilization of South-South and triangular cooperation, especially , to share knowledge on policy and institutional issues, build skills, transfer/ exchange and adapt technologies, and potentially attract investment or financing from public, private and other non-state sources.

3) Planning, policy frameworks and institutional capacities to substantially reinforce action on global climate change . Actions can help with integrating low-emission, climate-resilient objectives into national and sectoral development plans and identifying priority mitigation and/or adaptation measures; reforms that reduce financial risk and offer improved incentives for adaptation and mitigation responses which will beat the medium to long term; implementation of measures to scale back vulnerability and increase adaptive capacity across affected sectors; and development of capacities to access (including through direct access), deliver, monitor, report on and verify the utilization of climate finances.
