| Summary/Abstract |
The challenge of development is becoming increasingly difficult to address. At a time when the Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and the 2020 Paris climate accord call for long‐term strategic planning to address our most pressing social and environmental crises, we are confronted by enduring and deepening forms of socioeconomic inequality, climate change denial, persistent conflict, mass displacement and widening democratic deficit. New forms of poverty are emerging through the very processes that have brought prosperity; at the same time, the reconfiguration of the global development landscape through enhanced South−South cooperation (SSC) presents both opportunities and obstacles for poverty alleviation.
