This will include both a main theme, intended to run for three years (until 2028), and a sub-theme for this year.
Your opinion matters, and we need your input!

We would like to specify that, once again this year, the consultation process timetable will be divided. Individual contributions are expected by Saturday, February 28, while collective contributions will be accepted until Sunday, March 16.
This consultation is a valuable tool that enables people experiencing poverty, as well as those working alongside them, to make their voices heard—particularly at the United Nations. It helps us collectively shape the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty and contribute to the concept note of the International Committee for October 17.
Thank you for supporting these efforts with your contribution.
Aye Aye WIN
President of the International Committee for October 17
