GEO-6 Regional Assessment for Latin America and the Caribbean
GOAL 10
SDGs
Reduce inequality within and among countries
Main targets 10.1 by 2030
progressively achieve and sustain income growth of the bottom 40 per cent of the population at a rate higher than the national average
Scenario 1: Economy prevails
Income inequality increases. Top earners capture a larger share of the income gains. Technological change in globalization widens the distribution of labour income, but there are variations in policies and institutions that recreate inequality.
Scenario 2: Policy trade-offs
There is growing consensus that assessments of
economic performance should focus not only on income growth but also take income distribution into account.
In pursuing growth and redistribution strategies, policy makers take into account possible complementarities or trade-offs between economic growth and achieving greater sustainability.
Scenario 3: Towards a sustainability agenda
There is a reduction in the gap due to partnerships between all stakeholders, policies in education, capacity building, technology and innovation, and the promotion of opportunities. Inequality of opportunity is addressed.
