OAS approves Antigua-led resolution to establish group addressing poverty across the Americas

The Organization of American States (OAS) officially approved a resolution to establish a Joint Working Group to address poverty, inequality, and social exclusion across the Americas.

The resolution was drafted, negotiated, and introduced by Antigua and Barbuda's Ambassador, Sir Ronald Sanders, to the Organization's Permanent Council and the Inter American Council for Integral Development, after which it was adopted by acclamation by all member states.

The initiative aims to develop a comprehensive strategic plan for poverty eradication in the hemisphere within 90 days.
