A global platform bringing together countries and organizations to drive inclusive, sustainable action for the SDGs

In less than a year since its establishment, the Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty has united over 200 members — 104 countries and 97 organizations, including new members

 Kyrgyzstan and Pakistan. These members share a commitment to support and scale up efforts to eradicate hunger and poverty (SDGs 1 and 2), while also reducing inequalities (SDG 10).

The Alliance’s ambitious targets for 2030 include reaching 500 million people through income transfers and ensuring high-quality school meals for an additional 150 million children.

Co-chaired by Brazil and Spain, the Board of Champions brings together up to 50 high-level members who guide the Alliance’s vision and contribute to shaping decision-making across partner institutions.

Next Steps

The Global Alliance is preparing for its First Leaders’ Meeting, to be held on 3 November in Doha, Qatar, on the sidelines of the Second United Nations World Summit for Social Development. The meeting will review global progress, highlight the achievements of the past year, and define strategic directions for the next phase of collective action against hunger and poverty.

Following the Summit, Alliance members and other UNFCCC parties will convene in Belém, Brazil, for the launch of the Leaders’ Declaration on Hunger, Poverty and Human-Centred Climate Action. The text of the Declaration was negotiated over recent months within the Board of Champions before being submitted for broader endorsement.
