A look at one of the biggest challenges facing our world today - inequality - and how we are tackling it

We are all unique human beings, with different talents and skills. As we go through life, our experiences shape who we are. But sometimes the different paths we take are caused by inequality - not being treated fairly, because of where we are born, our health or abilities or even the colour of our skin. And this may wrongly affect how healthy, wealthy or educated we are able to become.

How can we build a better, fairer, more equal, cleaner world? This series seeks to answer this by exploring some of the greatest challenges facing our planet today - from disease to conflict, and from the energy crisis to the plight of refugees. It explains what is already being done to meet and tackle these challenges, and explores what more could and should be done, both individually and collectively, to ensure a better future for our planet, its people and its wildlife.

Taking a positive, but realistic perspective, this series aims to empower young readers by helping them understand these complex and troubling issues, calm their anxieties, and promote empathy and understanding for the many millions of people suffering from for example, poverty or inequality.
