Geneva, June 28 -- India-based civil society organisation Shivi Development Society has called for a more practical and inclusive approach to eradicating extreme poverty, urging the international community to focus on sustainable development, peace and stronger support for developing nations during the 62nd Session of the UN Human Rights Council.

Delivering an oral statement during the Interactive Dialogue with the UN Special Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty, Narender Kumar welcomed the report titled "The Roadmap for Eradicating Poverty Beyond Growth" and praised its vision of a "human rights economy." However, he stressed that the concept requires greater clarity and measurable indicators to assess its effectiveness.
