      abstract = {Today, wherever people live, they don’t have to look far  to confront inequalities. Inequality in its various forms  is an issue that will define our time. Confronting  inequalities has moved to the forefront of many global  policy debates as a consensus has emerged that all should  enjoy equal access to opportunity. ‘Leave no one  behind’ serves as the rallying cry of the 2030 Agenda for  Sustainable Development.    Overall, since the 1990s total  global inequality (inequality across all individuals in the  world) declined for the first time since the 1820s.  Reinforcing this trend, we have mostly seen income  inequality between countries decline. Yet income inequality  within countries has risen, this is the form of inequality  people feel on a daily basis.  Inequalities are not only  driven and measured by income, but are determined by other  factors - gender, age, origin, ethnicity, disability,  sexual orientation, class, and religion. These factors  determine inequalities of opportunity which continue to  persist, within and between countries. In some parts of the  world, these divides are becoming more pronounced.  Meanwhile, gaps in newer areas, such as access to online  and mobile technologies, are emerging. The result is a  complex mix of internal and external challenges that will  continue to grow over the next twenty-five years.},
