G20 and the fight against hunger, poverty and inequality
This piece is based on remarks by PDI’s Delilah Rothenberg during a meeting organized by the G20 focused on “the fight against hunger, poverty and inequality.” The meeting was facilitated by Brazil’s Ministry of Finance as part of Brazil’s role as host of this year’s G20 meetings. “Relying on redistribution to continuously address socio-economic inequality can result in the disadvantaged being dependent on handouts from the rich. Instead of production resulting in vast imbalances in wealth and power which require continuous remedy, workers and communities could have similar opportunities as executives and investors to share in financial gains and influence over investments.”
