La crise actuelle du coût de la vie et de l'insécurité alimentaire, résultant en partie des effets de la COVID-19 et de la guerre en Ukraine, a un impact dans le monde entier. Cependant, cela n'affecte pas toutes les personnes de la même manière.

I really think that inequality is the
biggest challenge of our age for me it
represents a breakdown of civilization
so we're not actually a civilized world
if we're priding over societies where
you have such deep
inequalities
[Music]
historically young people are the ones
who come up with innovative solutions
that change the world so if they're
excluded from decision- making and
Leadership opportunities we will be
missing out on all these new Solutions
and

about 50 million more people fell into
extreme poverty in Africa as a result of
coid combin that with the war in Ukraine
which basically stopped the flow of food
of Commodities raised prices of fuel of
fertilizer and created a massive cost of
living crisis
[Music]
globally coid did not create
inequalities it was always there right
what coid and the war in Ukraine have
done is deepen that inequalities it
affects the entire world poverty and
inequality violates basic human rights
and that is why we should all be
concerned about it we should all be
working

for
when we develop policy the data has to
be disaggregated and it has to reflect
the special needs of marginalized groups
whether we're talking about disabled
people um or young people as the case
may
be who was busy caring for the sick
during the pandemic mostly women and
that of course will also have an impact
immediately on their ability to earn
income and this is why in undp we're
really working on this the idea is to
really Force this issue with civil
society holding policy makers to account
in terms of how to reduce redistribute
but also recognize unpaid care work the
more women and other minority groups can
get the right education and can develop
their skills the more they can
participate in the workforce and in the
development of the
countries
[Music]
most of the people in IND Bangladesh
actually use public transportation but
they don't feel safe they don't find it
comfortable we wanted to address this
issue especially for women shle is a
transport tech company that is making uh
daily commutes convenient and affordable
for the middle inome people in
Bangladesh un dp's Innovation Focus has
been working with private sector as an
ally for
development especially addressing the
job deficits that the World
faces youth cab is an accelerator
program by undp and C Foundation that
helps young entrepreneurs to establish
their social businesses we were part of
Youth collab cohort back in 2019 and
they're still connecting us with
potential partners and
investors I think it's important to
understand when we say private sector I
mean sometimes in some quarters this
means big corporates but for undp
actually private sector is a Farmers
Association and it's the entrepreneurs
that are solving development problems
with their
Enterprises young people like us we are
more willing to take risk we are more
willing to try out new ideas I think
it's very important to have the right
infrastructures to have the right
ecosystem and also U availability of
funding for young people to take new
initiatives that will help us to create
a more more Equitable and sustainable
future for

all
[Music]
we have already seen massive progress in
developing countries and the way young
entrepreneurs are implementing solutions
to achieve sustainable development goals
I'm really excited about the future from
the deep of my heart believe that we'll
be able to achieve the goals the world
has never been wealthier when you think
about the knowledge that we have when
you think about the techn technology the
science The Innovation this world it's a
world that should be able to serve all
of
humanity we can afford
