2. SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President, Brazil:
“Political leaders must understand that the cheapest thing in the world is to take care of the poor. The cheapest thing is to give the poor the opportunity to work, to study, and to benefit from their sacrifices, then we are going to change the world.”

4. SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President, Brazil:
“Otherwise, inequality tends to grow. If you don’t include the poor in the budget, no one else will. That’s a challenge for the world. This challenge is not just for the African continent. It's for Brazil, the whole of Latin America, and some Asian countries.”
5. Wide shot, Brazilian president walking to podium
6. SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President, Brazil:
“The role of the ILO and its tripartite arrangement is even more relevant today than when it was founded. Never has social justice been so crucial for humanity. It is essential to rescue the spirit of the Philadelphia Declaration, adopted 80 years ago.”
7. Med shot, camera operators
8. SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President, Brazil:
“Almost 215 million – more than the population of Brazil – live in extreme poverty even when employed. Inequalities in gender, race, sexual orientation, and geographic origin are aggravating this scenario. Around the world, women are one of the most vulnerable links in the labor chain. The maxim “equal pay for equal work” is still a utopia.”
9. Med shot, Brazilian president writing
10. SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President, Brazil:
“Over more than a century, the ILO has contributed to countless achievements that have raised people's quality of life and strengthened peace, security, and prosperity. The Global Coalition we are launching today will be a central tool for building a transition with social fairness, decent work, and poverty eradication. This will be particularly important in this context of transition to a multipolar order, which will require deep changes in institutions.”
