President Cyril Ramaphosa and global experts gathered at Wits University today to take a historic step, beginning the establishment of the International Panel on Inequality.
President Ramaphosa, who commissioned the first-ever G20 report on global inequality, delivered the keynote address on the global inequality emergency. The report, authored by an Extraordinary Committee of Experts chaired by Nobel Economics Laureate Professor Joseph Stiglitz, recommended establishing a panel modelled on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
Representatives of the panel's founding governments; Brazil, Norway, South Africa, and Spain joined the committee in Johannesburg to discuss the urgent need for the panel and progress towards its founding.

@sherwiebp I just heard Ambassador Nkosi speak, impromptu, at a side panel discussion in Geneva I attended last week at the Permanent Forum on People of African Descent. He has a heart and a mind which deserves the highest respect. I was very impressed. Congratulations to Ambassador Nkosi.
(1/3) Campaign Win! ✅
I’m delighted that the Government has today announced that they will pass Philomena’s Law! 💚☘️
This is a bill I introduced to Parliament exactly a year ago to deliver justice for 13,000 survivors of Ireland’s Mother and Baby Homes living in Britain …
