The tenth goal aims to reduce inequality between and within countries.

• This includes: social, economic, political, income, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, race, class, ethnic, religious, and opportunity inequality 
• Income inequality involves improving the regulation and monitoring of financial markets and institutions, encouraging development assistance, and foreign direct investing to regions where the need is greatest.
• Facilitating the safe migration and mobility of people and access to health care are also central in reducing inequality.

Inequality threatens longterm social and economic development, harms poverty reduction and destroys people’s sense of fulfilment and self-worth.
