Global Poverty Index
The Global Poverty Index is a measurement that assesses how many people worldwide live in poverty and the severity of their hardship. It considers factors such as income levels, health, education, and living conditions. By combining these indicators, the index provides a comprehensive view of poverty across different countries, helping policymakers and organizations identify where support is most needed and track progress over time. It aims to give a clearer picture of global poverty beyond raw income figures, emphasizing quality of life and access to basic resources.
