Necessary to achieve SDGs for human development Leave no one behind For MOLDOVA, especially important goals:
productive employment and decent work for all
and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels For our common future, we must eradicate poverty and hunger, reduce inequalities and implement effective climate action.
“I am one of those who think and say that it is possible to destroy extreme poverty. Mark you, gentlemen, I am not saying ‘reduce’, ‘lessen’, ‘limit’, ‘control’, I said destroy. Poverty is a disease of society such as leprosy was a disease of the human body, and can be eliminated just as leprosy has disappeared. Yes, it is possible. Legislators and policymakers must think about it constantly, for as long as the possible is not done, our duty will never be fulfilled.” Victor Hugo, 1849
