Global Poverty 
780 million people, 11 percent of the world's population, live in extreme poverty on less than $1.90 per day. At least 17 million children suffer from severe acute malnutrition around the world. Severe acute malnutrition is the direct cause of death for 2 million children every year.

The Dynamics of Poverty
Children, lone parents, disabled people, and people in households in which no one works are more likely to experience poverty, to remain in poverty for longer, and to experience deeper poverty, than others.

Ending Poverty
Poverty robs people of choices and opportunities. People who are poor are more likely to be denied the tools and skills necessary to succeed in our society. People blame the poor for their plight, when in fact poverty spreads through the denial of opportunity.

Ending poverty is a complex and multifaceted challenge that requires coordinated efforts on various fronts. Some key strategies to address poverty include:

  1. Economic Growth: Promoting sustainable economic growth can create job opportunities and increase income levels for individuals and families.

  2. Education: Ensuring access to quality education can help break the cycle of poverty by providing people with the skills they need to secure better-paying jobs.

  3. Healthcare: Affordable healthcare services can improve the overall well-being of individuals and reduce the financial burden of medical expenses.

  4. Social Safety Nets: Establishing social safety nets like unemployment benefits, food assistance, and housing support can provide a safety net for those in need.

  5. Gender Equality: Promoting gender equality can empower women and girls, improving their access to education and economic opportunities.

  6. Infrastructure Development: Investments in infrastructure, such as transportation and utilities, can stimulate economic development in impoverished areas.

  7. Poverty Reduction Programs: Targeted programs and policies aimed at poverty reduction, such as microfinance and vocational training, can be effective.

  8. Global Cooperation: International collaboration is crucial to addressing poverty on a global scale, including debt relief, fair trade, and development aid.

Ending poverty is a long-term endeavor that requires sustained commitment from governments, organizations, and individuals worldwide.
