“The needs and development concerns of middle-income countries do not always attract the attention they should. Despite notable reductions in poverty levels, many middle income countries face rising inequality, the persistence of extreme poverty, and a lack of adequate social security systems. Further efforts are needed to improve safety nets and economic security.” –UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, addressing the High Level Economic and Social Council Meeting, 10 March 2011
