Global multidimensional poverty impacts 1.2 billion since 2010
The 2026 United Nations Development Programme report shows that the number of people affected by multidimensional poverty has risen to approximately 1.2 billion for the first time since 2010, marking an increase of 51.5 million people. Children make up more than half of those affected, with population growth contributing to an increase of about 15.4 million. However, 33 out of 89 countries have successfully halved their poverty indicators over the past 15 years, including six African nations, highlighting disparities in countries' ability to combat the phenomenon. This rise serves as a global warning, cautioning that millions continue to be deprived of basic needs.
