DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the UNRISD Conference 'Overcoming Inequalities in a 
 Fractured World: Between Elite Power and Social Mobilization'\n\n\nRegistr
 ation is now open: please click here.\n\nThe full Programme is available h
 ere.\n\nWhat the conference is about\nInequalities are one of today’s grea
 test challenges\, obstructing poverty reduction and sustainable developmen
 t. Such disparities are catalysed by elite capture of economic and politic
 al power\, a reinforcing process that compounds inequality\, which—in its 
 various dimensions—undermines social\, environmental and economic sustaina
 bility\, and fuels poverty\, insecurity\, crime and xenophobia.\n\nAs the 
 power of elites grows and societal gaps widen\, institutions representing 
 the public good and universal values are increasingly disempowered or co-o
 pted\, and visions of social justice and equity side-lined. As a result\, 
 society is fracturing in ways that are becoming more and more tangible\, w
 ith the growing divide between the privileged and the rest dramatically re
 arranging both macro structures and local lifeworlds.\n\nThe 2030 Agenda f
 or Sustainable Development seeks to overcome such disparities\, “leaving n
 o one behind”. But how can this ambitious vision be achieved in the curren
 t climate\, in which those in power act to protect the status quo from whi
 ch they benefit? How can we build progressive alliances to drive the polit
 ical and policy changes needed for an equitable\, inclusive 21st century e
 co-social compact?\n\nAll details are available here.\n
