Commemoration of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty 2026.



October 17 — the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty (IDEP) — is a powerful global platform to affirm the indivisibility of human rights. The 2026–2028 umbrella theme, United for Peace and Human Rights, responds to a world marked by rising armed conflict and persisting institutional violence against people in poverty. Peace requires justice, social protection, and democratic participation — not merely the absence of war.
