Mission Overview

Do you want to make a real difference and use your voice for a crucial cause? Youthshare invites you to become an Article Writer for SDG 1: "No Poverty". Your mission will be to research information, analyze the challenges, and write a clear, impactful article to raise awareness within our community about this vital goal. This is your chance to put your pen to work for an essential cause!

Here's what you'll do specifically:

• Research and Monitoring: You'll explore reliable sources (NGO reports, news articles, academic studies) to gather recent and relevant information on the causes, consequences, and solutions to poverty, both locally and globally.

• Analysis and Synthesis: You'll organize your findings to understand the issues related to SDG 1, existing initiatives, and remaining challenges.

• Article Writing: You'll write a clear, concise, and engaging article of 500 to 800 words for our platform. Your article will highlight the importance of this SDG and potential actions. You could cover topics like child poverty, access to basic services, social protection, or innovations aimed at poverty reduction.

• Audience: Your article will be published on our website and aims to reach young people and a wider audience globally. It should be accessible, educational, and engaging, avoiding overly complex jargon.

We'll provide you with links to key reports (UN, World Bank, national statistics offices), tutorials for online research, and a contact person to help you validate your ideas and offer support if needed.

The Current State of the SDGs: A Call to Action! Today, at the halfway point of the 2030 Agenda, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are unfortunately at risk. Successive global crises - pandemics, conflicts, inflation, and the effects of climate change - have slowed, or even reversed, progress in many areas. The fight against poverty (SDG 1) is more urgent than ever, with millions of people pushed back into extreme poverty. That's why every contribution matters, and yours can make a real difference.

By volunteering with us, you're not just writing; you're becoming a concrete agent of change. Your article on SDG 1 will be published on the Youthshare platform, reaching thousands of young people and a broader global audience, inspiring them to take action. Your name will be featured on our website's author list, publicly recognizing your contribution. This is a unique opportunity to develop your research, writing, and critical analysis skills, invaluable assets for your studies and future career. You'll enrich your CV with concrete and valuable experience. More importantly, you'll directly contribute to advancing the cause of poverty reduction and inspiring your generation. Join us and become the voice that informs and motivates for a future without poverty!
