Our #LeaveNoOneBehind campaign is about removing the barriers that prevent people living in poverty from the opportunities they need to thrive. Issues like health equity, climate change, emergencies, economic inequality - and now the COVID-19 pandemic - is evidence of the inequalities that exist where the poor and most vulnerable suffer the most. With the deadline of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the ambition to end poverty less than 10 years away, let’s ensure that no one is left behind as we strive for equality for all.

Our #LeaveNoOneBehind campaign this month focuses on the impact that income inequality has on the communities impacted most by COVID-19. In the fight against this pandemic, we need Canada to support a global and equitable response by investing in the strengthening of vulnerable communities.
