Bani Mustafa: Tackle Poverty Causes
Jordan's Minister of Social Development, Wafaa Bani Mustafa, announced that combating poverty requires shifting from merely addressing its effects to tackling its root causes through comprehensive policies that focus on economic empowerment and social protection. She emphasized that this is especially important given the multifaceted nature of poverty, which includes aspects such as education, health, housing, and decent work. She pointed out that Jordan relies on advanced measurement tools like the Multidimensional Poverty Index and works on strengthening its social protection system using data and technology, thereby helping to target the most vulnerable families. Participants also highlighted the importance of Arab cooperation and regional platforms in facing social challenges, with a focus on the most disadvantaged groups—such as people with disabilities, the elderly, and children—through sustainable, practical policies aimed at reducing poverty and achieving sustainable development.
