Child Labour
For tens of millions of children around the world, their basic rights are at risk because they have to work.
Energy and Human Rights

Access to Healthcare and Medicines
Goal 3 of the Sustainable Development Goals aims to ensure that all people, at every stage of life, can live healthy lives.

Poverty is not natural; it is man-made but the way that it is spoken about and particularly how people living in poverty are spoken about, does not reflect this.
Land Grabs
In today’s world landowners, agribusinesses, investors and governments want to acquire land to turn into crop plantations to make huge profits.
