?SDG10 Globally Reducing Inequalities of all kinds: (YouTube URL: https://youtu.be/I6X-3QrNmZI )

?????????What is the SDG talks about? (Reference: https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal10 )

????????SDG 10 talks about Globally Reducing Inequalities of all kinds, within the countries and among the countries

Problems Aggravated or Created by the Pandemic:

????????Now as usual we’ll discuss about Problems created or aggravated by the COVID-2019 Pandemic first, so that course corrections and solutions can be found out and later we’ll find out its impact on each Target and Indicator of SDG10:

????????Gini Index has increased. We generally don’t talk technical terms but if this index happens to be zero then there are not inequalities present in the society. However, it was never zero till date, and lot of work was done to reduce this gap. However, all work is lost due to Pandemic, 6% increase in the Gini Index was recorded. Thus, Inequality has increased and Richer have become extra richer and Poor have become still more poorer in developing and emergent markets. This impact is higher than the 2007 to 2009 global financial crises, due to Pandemic lockdowns.

????????In our own Survey we found that the people in the private sector in India and across the world suffered most and have come 1 level down in their Financials especially among the middle classes. Rest of the details later.

????????Proportion of Global Population per million has doubled since 2010 due to increase in war torn states, vulnerable states and failure states in 2020 and it is 311/ 100,000 globally right now.

????????Another point is people in the warn torn states try to migrate and in that more than 4000 people died in 2020. Are we kind and sensitive humans? Please think over it.

????????Another point is people leave their countries for better prospects or for job and then they send remittances to family back to their own countries. Even those remittances costs are almost 6.5% in 2020, and they are more than double than the target of 3% though they are at the lowest till date.

????????There can be definitely humanitarian side to this and each person’s background will be very useful while dealing each case on person to person basic so that misuse of the law cannot be there, sending money to old mother or father of relative costs 6% then this point needs a relook.

J Someone asked what are those things? Please simplify…

????????So there 3 indicators:

????????a. Where the nations is stronger or sound enough or leading?

????????c. Where the nation is lagging behind?

If a person observes carefully, SDG are indicators to reduce the troubles and stresses of the humans living anywhere and everywhere on the mother earth. The last point of remittance shows that those who try to exploit will be eliminated from the process and system, it’s that simple.

Finally a Request:

“Are humans going to fight wars for millions of years?

We need Welfare not Wars.

Why not same investment be made in Achieving SDG and going to Moon, Mars and Beyond?

Definitely our fundamentals of living, governing, government administrations, sources of earning money, and overall social values needs a relook, before it’s too late for humanity.”
