Sustainable Development Goal 1: No poverty

SDG 1 - 'End poverty in all its forms everywhere' - is made up of 7 targets and 14 indicators. It covers not only income-based measures of poverty but also other dimensions, including access to social protection and basic services, economic resources, and resilience. The two means of implementation indicators focus on the mobilization of resources and the development of pro-poor and gender-sensitive policies.

The EU considers 10 indicators monitoring progress towards SDG 1 in EU context: 6 are specific for SDG1 and other 4 are multi-purpose indicators (supplementary indicators of other goals which complement the monitoring of this goal).
