Reduce inequality

Goal Ten takes the clarion call to leave-no-one-behind to discussions of reducing inequality in its various manifestations—income; social, economic and political inclusion; and policy-derived exclusion, among others. The Goal also addresses issues of inequalities among countries along the dimensions of representation, migration and development assistance. Highlights of the baseline status of the region are based on indicators of income inequality, labour compensation and cost of sending remittances. While key data gaps exist, the available data suggest a mixed trend for income inequality: falling in some respects in some countries, but rising in others.
