Lula stressed the moral imperative of addressing these issues, citing that extreme poverty and hunger are unacceptable in an era of abundance. The alliance builds on past international actions, drawing attention to the need for systematic change and the need to realign global priorities toward human well-being
By fostering collaboration, Brazil aims to ensure that the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly those targeting hunger and poverty, regain momentum. This initiative is expected to leave a lasting legacy for Brazil’s G20 presidency.
