| Resumen: |
The Second World Summit for Social Development presents a landmark opportunity to analyse the current situation and take decisions that will enable effective and sustainable progress towards inclusive social development, so that all people are able to live free from poverty and achieve a level of well-being that aligns with high, sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, and that enables the development of skills in conditions of freedom and dignity, with full exercise of economic, social, cultural and environmental rights and opportunities for recognition and participation to address social divides and inequalities.
This document contains a proposal for agreement on a global pact for inclusive social development, a message from the ministries of social development and equivalent entities in Latin America and the Caribbean to the world aimed at reinforcing the social commitments of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The proposal is based on recent experience and aims to address the structural and emerging challenges shaping the social reality of the region, to build on the gains made in a sustainable manner and to seize the opportunities presented by the major changes that are under way at the global level. |
