dc.description<p>In 2015, the leaders of 193 governments promised to reduce inequality as part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Without reducing inequality, meeting the SDG to eliminate poverty will be impossible.</p> <p>Now Development Finance International and Oxfam have produced the first index to measure the commitment of governments to reducing the gap between the rich and the poor.</p> <p>The Commitment to Reducing Inequality Index uses a new database of indicators covering 152 countries, which measures government action on social spending, tax and labour rights - three areas found to be critical to reducing inequality.</p> <p>This first version of the CRI Index is work in progress, and DFI and Oxfam welcome comments and additions. We find that there is an urgent need for coordinated global investment to significantly improve the data on inequality and policies to reduce it, and much greater concerted action by governments across the world to reduce the gap between rich and poor.</p> <p><strong>Update</strong>: See the <a href="http://hdl.handle.net/10546/620553">Commitment to Reducing Inequality Index 2018</a> for the most recent information.</p>en_US
