Poverty is a multifaceted and complex condition characterized by the lack of essential resources and the inability to meet basic needs for a minimum standard of living. These resources include income, food, shelter, education, and access to healthcare. Poverty can manifest at individual, household, or community levels and is often measured in terms of income or consumption levels.

Understanding poverty is essential for creating a more just, equitable, and sustainable world. It enables informed decision-making, promotes social inclusion, and contributes to the development of effective policies and interventions aimed at reducing and eventually eliminating poverty.
