	II applaud #UK, #Canada, #Rwanda and #Ghana for their focus on #jobs in Africa. 90% of jobs in developing countries are created by the private sector. We must invest more and better in @humancapital to create the conditions for business to thrive and #endpoverty. pic.twitter.com/p5ZQwfujGN

	The global poverty rate is lower now than it has ever been, but progress is slowing. To #endpoverty by 2030 we must #investinpeople, build #HumanCapital & promote the inclusive growth it will take to reach the remaining poor. For their sake, we cannot fail wrld.bg/ZWdf30lQRyV pic.twitter.com/6yuUg5lsyn
