Reports indicate that the number of people suffering from extreme poverty worldwide has reached approximately 1.2 billion, marking an increase of 51.5 million compared to the previous year. This is the highest level since the Multidimensional Poverty Index was launched in 2010. Children make up more than half of the poor, facing hardships such as hunger, lack of access to education, and shortages of clean water and electricity. Although 33 countries have made progress in reducing poverty rates over the past 15 years, regions like Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia—particularly India—remain the most affected by rising poverty levels. Population growth continues to increase the total number of those in need, as the index evaluates deprivation not only in income but also in essential services.
