Establishing indicators of poverty

Description

Establishing indicators of poverty involves developing clear, measurable criteria to accurately identify and assess the extent and nature of poverty within populations. This strategy enables targeted interventions by providing reliable data for policymakers, aid organizations, and communities. By standardizing assessment tools, it remedies inconsistencies in poverty measurement, supports resource allocation, and monitors progress in poverty reduction efforts, ensuring that assistance reaches those most in need and that strategies are effectively evaluated and refined.
