The problem
More than 750 million people in developing regions live on less than US$1.90 a day, the internationally agreed poverty line. Millions of others live on slightly more. In developed countries, millions experience poverty in myriad forms -- low income, homelessness, hunger and malnutrition, limited access to education and basic services, social discrimination and exclusion, and lack of participation in decision-making. Corporations have a central role to play in bringing people out of poverty, including by creating good jobs, paying a living wage, growing the economy through innovation, establishing and enforcing human rights policies for internal operations and supply chain partners, and charitable giving and involvement with local communities
