As the UN gears up for its 80th anniversary in 2025, young voices like Edward from France are stepping into the spotlight with bold ideas to reshape our world. 🎯 Partnering with CGTN's global "One Home: Shared Future" campaign, Edward is rallying Gen Z to tackle one of humanity's oldest challenges: extreme poverty.
"Why should anyone live on less than $2.15 a day when we have the tools to change it?" Edward argues. His blueprint? Cancel unfair debts crushing developing nations, tax the ultra-rich (looking at you, billionaires 🕶️), and funnel investments into green energy projects. 💡
This isn't just idealism—it's math. The UN estimates 700 million people still live in extreme poverty globally. Edward's call comes as youth-led movements gain traction worldwide, blending TikTok activism with real-world policy demands. 📈
What's your take? Could this triple-threat approach be the key to hitting the UN's 2030 zero-poverty target? Let us know using #ZeroPovertyFuture!
