The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, held annually on 17 October, seeks to acknowledge the struggles and amplify the voices of those living in poverty, recognizing that poor people are at the forefront in the fight against poverty.
In order to help tackle these pressing problems and to help realize the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 1 (SDG1: End Poverty), Springer Nature is joining the cause with this hub update, collecting research across disciplines and imprints. Aimed at researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and anyone else active in working towards this goal. Here we share the latest academic voices on issues creating and perpetuating poverty around the world, as well as how people are affected.
