New global panel proposed to tackle inequality
Original: Could a new global panel defuse inequality’s ‘ticking time bomb’?
The United Nations is backing the idea of a new global panel on inequality, describing widening gaps between rich and poor as a 'ticking time bomb'. The panel would work much like existing international scientific bodies, assembling evidence on inequality to guide government policy. Supporters argue that rising disparities in wealth and opportunity threaten social stability worldwide, while critics will question whether another advisory body can change outcomes where political will is lacking.
Why now: The UN is promoting a proposed new international panel on inequality, framing extreme inequality as an urgent global threat.
