be a chance for sustainability, justice and peace. Cultivating and conserving
diversity is no luxury in our times: it is a survival imperative."
Uniformity

we are serious about ending poverty, we have to be serious about ending the system
that creates poverty by robbing the poor of their economic wealth, livelihoods
and incomes. Before we can make poverty history, we need to get the history of
poverty right. It’s not about how much wealthy nations can give so much as how
much less they can take.
