International Day for the Eradication of PovertyInternational Day for the Eradication of Poverty is an annual observance that raises awareness about global poverty and promotes actions to combat poverty at various levels. The day serves as a platform for individuals, organizations, and governments to collaborate and address the root causes of poverty, such as unemployment, social exclusion, and lack of access to essential services. With its central theme of "Acting Together to Achieve Social and Environmental Justice for All," the observance emphasizes the need for collective efforts in eradicating poverty through sustainable and inclusive solutions. The United Nations General Assembly established the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty in 1992 following recommendations from the World Summit for Social Development. In Canada, poverty remains a critical issue, with approximately 3.7 million Canadians living below the poverty line as of 2019. According to Statistics Canada, the most vulnerable groups include Indigenous people, members of immigrant and racialized communities, people with disabilities, and single-parent households. The Canadian government has implemented various poverty reduction measures, such as the National Poverty Reduction Strategy and enhanced income support programs, to address poverty domestically and support global efforts to eradicate poverty through international aid and initiatives. To observe International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, Canadians participate in various events and activities, including educational seminars, fundraising initiatives, and community-based projects. These events are typically organized by non-profit organizations, academic institutions, and government agencies to engage the public in understanding and addressing the complexities of poverty. The observance in Canada occurs on the same date as the global observation, October 17th. Canadians manifest their commitment to building a more equitable and just society for all by participating in this special day. Facts about this day and poverty
