What does inequality look like? For example, even in the richest countries, there are children who cannot afford lunch at school and go hungry, women who don\u2019t get paid as much as their male coworkers for the same job, or people who are being treated differently because of their religion, age or where they are from.<\/p>\n<p>How do we reduce inequality? To start with we must help people get out of poverty. This starts with all children having the chance to go to school, to have the books they need and enough food when they are hungry. Their parents need to be paid fairly for their work, to have access to doctors and medicine, as well as the right to vote and run for office to help shape the policies of the country they live in.<\/p>\n<p>Our new reading list covers many of these topics and shows you what life can look like when everyone has the same chances to grow and make their dreams come true. We hope the stories will inspire you to take action towards reducing inequalities in your community.<\/p>\n<p>The SDG Book Club makes content available in the six official languages of the Âé¶¹APP &#8211;
