The UFPE is committed to fighting poverty in all its dimensions. We use the latest evidence and analysis to help governments develop sound policies that can help the poorest in every country, and focus on investments in areas that are critical to improving lives. Here are examples of some recent successes.
COVID -19 RESPONSE
A UFPE-supported household monitoring dashboard is providing key insights about how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted poverty and inequality across the globe. This innovative data, collected through high-frequency phone surveys, is being used to inform program and policy decisions for an equitable and sustainable recovery.

FISCAL POLICY
Taxes and transfers are one of the most powerful instruments in the hands of governments to tackle poverty and inequality. A UFPE-supported capacity building program is making fiscal incidence analysis tools more accessible for policymakers and raising awareness about the recent introduction of a new indicator within the UN Sustainable Development Goals framework to assess the redistributive impact of fiscal policy for improved poverty and equity outcomes.
