The WSSD2 culminated with the adoption of the ‘Doha Political Declaration’:
“The Declaration acknowledges the urgent need to address profound social challenges, especially poverty, unemployment, and social exclusion, and recognizes three interrelated and mutually reinforcing core themes of social development: poverty eradication; the promotion of full and productive employment and decent work for all; and social integration. The Declaration also recognizes that social development and social justice are indispensable for the achievement and maintenance of peace and security within and among nations.”
