SDG 10 : REDUCED INEQUALITIES

 SDG 10 : REDUCED INEQUALITIES



          Goal 10 in sustainable development goals is one of the most important steps in the transformative vision of the world in 2030. Inequality may not harm economic growth and thwart poverty reduction, but may also harm public and political relations through a lack of discourse and lead to less sense of fulfilment and self worth for minority groups. Inequality keeps people from reaching their full potential in education and their professional career. SDG 10 aims to ensure equal opportunities by eliminating discriminatory laws, policies, and practices and improving the regulation of global financial institutions. 

 

        
        As discussed, inequality can cause individuals to feel like they do not belong to society and reduce self-motivation and self-belief to pursue an education. For example, a low level of education, or dropping out of school early continues to influence the opportunities and wages of these individuals and drive further inequality. Furthermore, there are several cases I would to mention in this blog in which Islamophobia in one country. for those that have experienced Islamophobic hate crime because of the
intersections between gender, race/ethnicity, appearance and space are often ignored within the criminal justice system.  From being verbally and physically attacked, threatened and harassed as well as their property being damaged individuals have experienced a spate of online and offline hatred.

        

          Apart from that, the incidents usually happen in public spaces, on trains, buses, shopping centres as well as workplace – often when other people were there yet did not intervene. Attacks against participants also take place near mosques or areas with high population of Muslims. The impacts upon victims included physical, emotional, psychological, and economic damage. These experiences are also damaging to community cohesion and lead to a polarisation between different communities. There are one time when people do not want to buy a product as they knew the owner shop is a Muslim. This can impact economy growth.


        In order to achieve this goal is raise our voice against any type of discrimination. Everyone is equal regardless of their gender, race, sexual orientation, social background and physical abilities. Other than that, launch a campaign to give awareness to the community to open the eyes of the community. Promote international cooperation and ensure fair trade policies that benefit developing countries and foster economic growth. Moreover, provide development assistance,technology transfer and capacity-building support to least developed countries to bridge the development gap.



        Lastly, To achieve SDG 10, collaborative efforts from governments, the private sector, civil society, and individuals are necessary. By working together, we can build cities that provide equal opportunities, protect the environment, and enhance the quality of life for all residents, contributing to a more sustainable and prosperous future.

  SDG 5 : GENDER EQUALITY           Gender equality is when people of all genders have equal rights, responsibilities and opportunities. Everyone is affected by gender inequality including women, men, children and families. It impacts people of all ages and backgrounds. According to the United Nations, gender equality is not only a fundamental human right but also the basis for a society that is peaceful, wealthy, and sustainable. There is no sustainable development without gender equality which means it is really crucial for us to have gender equality in education, employment and so no one is left behind.                      Greater societal issues including illiteracy, legal restrictions, occupational segregation, and inadequate health care can all be linked to gender inequality.  According to research conducted in Malaysia in 2020, there are five variables that contribute to...

 SDG2 : ZERO HUNGER            This time, I would like to compose a post on the issue of hunger in Malaysia for the blog. As we already realise that hunger is one of the major uncontrolled problems the world is facing and it is almost somewhat similar to a global epidemic. The rate of hunger as of 2019 has been rising and the groups affected worldwide are mostly children. The socioeconomic effects of the COVID-19 problem are likely to make things worse. Hunger and malnutrition result in less productive people who are more prone to illness, which prevents them from enhancing their quality of life.           In Malaysia, sometimes thought of as having plenty of food, there are significant problems with child malnutrition there. Particularly, Malaysia has high rates of child stunting for an upper middle-income nation, with rates that are comparable to conflict-ridden nations like Iraq and Palestine. Therefore, Malay...

SDG 6 : CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION

SDG 6 : CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION             The phrase "water is life" refers to the fact that all living things depend on it for survival. In order for water to be appropriate for human consumption, it must be clean and free of diseases and bacteria. Sanitation on the other side is ensuring that one’s surroundings is kept clean at all times, so that it does not become a health threat for its occupants. People won't catch illnesses like diarrhoea, cholera, typhoid, and all other water-borne illnesses when they consume contaminated water when there is clean water and a clean environment. These illnesses frequently result in high death rates, which have a detrimental effect on a nation's per capita GDP.           Since people are attracted to living in locations with clean water and other social amenities, a healthy environment and clean water both help a nation's economy. Additionally, because of the accessibility o...
