poverty

Poverty is defined as a state or condition in which a person or a group lacks the financial means and
essentials to live comfortably. Poverty is described as a circumstance in which one's earnings from
employment fall short of meeting basic human needs. Individuals and families living in poverty may lack
access to suitable housing, safe drinking water, nutritional food, and medical treatment. Each country may
have its own poverty line that determines the number of individuals who are poor.

Poverty is scarcity, death, or the states of one who lacks a certain amount of material possessions or
money. It includes low incomes and thee inability to aquire the basic goods and services necessary for
survival survival with dignity

Poverty stifles economic progress in any country with a large proportion of the population living in
poverty. Poverty affects persons who live in living conditions that are below the minimal standard or
acceptable conditional measurement. Furthermore, linguistic differences obstruct understanding of
poverty concerns and the development of the most effective prospective solutions. As a result, many
aspects of poverty-eradication-related activities appear to be unrealistic and conceptually wrong.

In addition, despite modern society's technological advancements, poverty has become more
widespread on both an individual and societal level. That is, poverty endures despite technological
advancements, despite the fact that global food supply surpasses global demand four times. Many
arguments have been advanced to define poverty and estimate future patterns of poverty incidence.

On the other hand, many sets of technical and theoretical assumptions have long argued against the lack
of definition. Those assumptions are established for a variety of sociopolitical reasons, with fair and
sensible justifications thrown in to meet the interests and wishes of a diverse set of stakeholders. As a
result, different classifications should be identified based on the local environment, such as political,
demographic, and economic demands of the poor. In the following part, the necessity of understanding
the notion of poverty and different perspectives in the context of this study is argued.
Poverty occurs when people have their needs satisfied to lesser degree than is considered sufficient. This
is general definition which seems to be commonly acceptable. However, it leaves open the fundamental
question of what is a sufficient degree of needs satisfaction and how this is established. The various ways
in which this question is answered constitute the various interpretations of the concept of poverty.
Concept for subjective poverty. Anybody can express judgment on whether he considers his needs to be
satisfied to a sufficient or insufficient degrre. He may be considered poor or not poor, depending on
The difficulty of definition is exacerbated by the noneconomic connotations that the term poverty has
acquired. Poverty is defined as a state of being unable to meet one's basic necessities. Basic needs might
be as specific as "those required for survival" or as general as "the community's current standard of
living." The first criterion would apply exclusively to individuals on the verge of famine or death from
exposure; the second would apply to those whose nourishment, housing, and clothes, while enough for
survival, do not meet the needs of the general population.
