To reduce inequality, policies have to be put in place to empower and promote the social, economic and political inclusion of all. Inequalities can take different forms : social exclusion is one of them. It is necessary to ensure equal opportunity for all individuals and groups taking part in our society, independently of their characteristics. Because social exclusion means that individuals are blocked or denied access to fundamental rights, opportunities or resources such as housing, employment, healthcare or democratic participation, it is fundamental we erase it.
