Paragraph text
Considering the conditions of extreme poverty in which the majority of people of African descent live in both developing and developed countries, development activities and programmes must address all people of African descent, regardless of the country in which they live. Racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance pose major obstacles for people of African descent in the eradication of poverty.
