1. Poverty

2. Poverty 2 P overty , the state of one who lacks a usual or socially acceptable amount of money or material possessions. Poverty is said to exist when people lack the means to satisfy their basic needs

3. Poverty entails more than the lack of income and productive resources to ensure sustainable livelihoods. Its manifestations include hunger and malnutrition, limited access to education and other basic services, social discrimination and exclusion, as well as the lack of participation in decision-making.  3 United Nations

4. 4 United Nations Manifestation Poverty is a lack of income and productive resources sufficient to ensure sustainable livelihoods; hunger and malnutrition; ill health; limited or lack of access to education and other basic services; increased morbidity and mortality from illness; homelessness and inadequate housing; unsafe environments; and social discrimination and exclusion. It is also characterized by a lack of participation in decision-making and in civil, social and cultural life.”

5. 5 Historically, poverty has been defined in monetary terms, using income or consumption levels. In order to be able to compare poverty levels across countries and over time, those that live below a given level of income called the poverty line ( Ravallion , 2010) are classified as poor.

6. 6 Over the last decades, this economic definition of poverty has been complemented by other approaches to conceptualise poverty: basic needs approach, capabilities approach, human development approach and multidimensional poverty approach (Handley et al., 2009).

7. 7 Chambers (2006), a leading scholar on poverty and development, clusters poverty definitions into four groups: Income poverty Material lack or want Capability deprivation Multidimensional deprivation

9. 9 Absolute Poverty and Relative Poverty Absolute poverty is a state in which a person cannot meet their most basic needs. This means that if you are in absolute poverty, you are not able to get the minimum amount of food, clothing, and shelter that you need to survive. Relative poverty refers to a situation in which your income falls below a certain percentage of the national median income. 

10. 10 That number also includes extreme poverty that is defined by the UN as “a condition characterized by severe deprivation of basic human needs, including food, safe drinking water, sanitation facilities, health, shelter, education and information. It depends not only on income but also on access to services.”

16. 16 THE WORLD’S POOREST COUNTRY Burundi is the world’s poorest country followed by Central African Republic, DR Congo, South Sudan and Somalia as the poorest. The richest countries are Luxembourg, Singapore, Ireland, Qatar and Switzerland . 19 of the 20 poorest countries are all located in Africa. The first non-African country on the list is Afghanistan, ranked 15th.

18. 18 Among ASEAN countries considered, Myanmar has the highest share of population living below the national poverty line in the ASEAN region, with 24.8 percent of the population doing so in 2017. As of 2021, Indonesia had 10.1 percent of its population living beneath the poverty line

19. 19 The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic pushed 4.7 million people in Southeast Asia into extreme poverty in 2021, as 9.3 million jobs disappeared, compared with a baseline no-COVID scenario, according to a new Asian Development Bank (ADB) report presented at the Southeast Asia Development Symposium (SEADS).

20. Poverty in the Philippines

21. 21 In the Philippines 6.1% of the population live on less than $1.90 per day, 26% live on less than $3.20 per day and 55.1% live on less than $5.50 per day (World Bank Data )

22. 22 The DSWD's ' Listahanan 3' survey finds out that about 30 million Filipinos are poor. There are over 5.6 million Filipino families living in poverty as of 2022, according to findings of the  Listahanan  3 survey released by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).

23. 23 In individual terms , two out of five Filipinos are poor, or at least 30 million Filipinos are considered poor. Moreover five out of 10, or half of all indigenous peoples households, are poor.  This number is about 27% of the 111 million total Philippine population

24. 24 The Rural Poverty Portal reports that half of the poor in the Philippines live in rural areas. The poorest of the poor are the indigenous, landless laborers , fishermen, small farmers, mountain folk and women. Deforestation, depleted fisheries, and unproductive farmland are major problems for these people.

25. 25 The average family income needed to meet the minimum basic food and non-food needs of a family with five members in 2021 was estimated at PhP 12,030 per month . This amount is also called as the poverty threshold, which was higher by 11.8 percent from the estimated PhP10,756 monthly poverty threshold for a five member family in 2018. On the other hand, the average family income needed to meet the minimum basic food needs of a five-member family in 2021 was placed at PhP 8,379 per month, an amount higher than the food threshold in 2018 of about PhP 7,553.

27. 27 At the regional level, the regions with the lowest poverty incidence among families in 2021 were National Capital Region (NCR), Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR), Region III, and Region IV-A.

28. 28 T he Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) consistently figured with the highest poverty incidence among families at 29.8 percent in 2021. Moreover, more than half of the regions posted significant changes in their incidences from 2018 to 2021. The regions with significant increases were NCR, MIMAROPA, and Regions I, III, IV-A, VI, VII, and X. On the other hand, significant decreases were observed in CAR, Region XI, and ARMM/BARMM.

29. 29 At the provincial level, the provinces which belonged to the group with the least poverty incidence among families in 2015, 2018 and 2021 were Bataan, Batanes , Benguet , Bulacan , Capiz , Cavite, Guimaras , Ilocos Norte, Laguna, Pampanga, and Rizal. The provinces of La Union, Siquijor , and Tarlac were included in the least poor cluster since 2018. Meanwhile, the other provinces that joined this roster of least poor cluster in 2021 were: Apayao , Batangas , Cagayan, Davao del Norte, Davao del Sur, Ifugao , Kalinga , Lanao del Sur, Palawan, and Quirino

30. 30 Sulu was consistently included in the cluster with relatively high poverty incidence among families in 2015, 2018 and 2021. Basilan was in the poorest cluster in 2018 and 2021, while the new entrants in 2021 were Agusan del Sur, Davao Occidental, Sarangani , and Zamboanga del Norte .

31. 31 Lack of good jobs/job growth This is the first reason a lot of people think about. When you don’t have a good job, you aren’t getting a good income. In many countries, traditional jobs like farming are disappearing.

32. 32 Lack of Good Education Poverty is a cycle and without education, people aren’t able to better their situations. According to UNESCO, over 170 million people could be free of extreme poverty if they only had basic reading skills. However, in many areas of the world, people aren’t getting educated. The reasons vary. Often times, families need kids to work, there aren’t schools close by, or girls aren’t being educated because of sexism and discrimination.

33. 33 Warfare/conflict Conflict has a huge impact on poverty. In times of war, everything stops. Productivity suffers as well as a country’s GDP. It’s very difficult to get things going again as foreign businesses and countries won’t want to invest. For families and individuals, war and conflict can make it impossible to stay in one place. It’s also very common for women to become the primary breadwinners, and they deal with many barriers like sexual violence and discrimination.

34. 34 Weather/climate change According to the World Bank, climate change has the power to impoverish 100 million people in the next decade or so. We know climate change causes drought, floods, and severe storms, and that can take down successful countries while pulling poor ones down even further. Recovering is extremely difficult, as well, especially for agricultural communities where they barely have enough to feed themselves, let alone prepare for the next harvest year.

35. 35 Social Injustice Whether it’s gender discrimination, racism, or other forms of social injustice, poverty follows. People who are victims of social injustice struggle with getting a good education, the right job opportunities, and access to resources that can lift them out of poverty.

36. 36 Lack of Infrastructure Infrastructure includes roads, bridges, the internet, public transport, and more. When a community or families are isolated, they have to spend a lot of money, time, and energy getting to places. Without good roads, traveling takes forever. Infrastructure connects people to the services and resources they need to better their financial and life situation, and without it, things don’t get better.

37. 37 Lack of good healthcare People who are poor are more likely to suffer from bad health, and those with bad health are more likely to be poor. This is because healthcare is often too expensive or inaccessible to those who need it. Without money for medicine and treatment, the poor have to make really tough decisions, and usually essentials like food take priority.

38. 38 High costs The last root of poverty is simple: stuff costs too much. Even the basics can be too expensive. According to stats from the World Food Programme, the poorest households in the world are spending 60-80% of their incomes on food. Food prices are also very unpredictable in certain areas, so when they rise, the poor have to keep cutting out other essentials. Housing is another essential that is rising. Global house markets have been climbing, according to the International Monetary Fund.

39. 39 Lack of Government Support/ Corruption The government needs to be involved. However, many governments are either unable or unwilling to serve the poor. S ocial welfare programs, redirecting funds away from those who need it, failing to build good infrastructure, or actively persecuting the population. If a government fails to meet the needs of the poor, the poor will most likely stay that way.

40. 40 The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. Action Plan

41. 41 Goal 1 NO POVERTY Sustainable Development Goals By 2030, reduce at least by half the proportion of men, women and children of all ages living in poverty in all its dimensions according to national definitions Implement nationally appropriate social protection systems and measures for all, including floors, and by 2030 achieve substantial coverage of the poor and the vulnerable

42. 42 Goal 1 NO POVERTY Sustainable Development Goals By 2030, build the resilience of the poor and those in vulnerable situations and reduce their exposure and vulnerability to climate-related extreme events and other economic, social and environmental shocks and disasters Ensure significant mobilization of resources from a variety of sources, including through enhanced development cooperation, in order to provide adequate and predictable means for developing countries, in particular least developed countries, to implement programmes and policies to end poverty in all its dimensions. Create sound policy frameworks at the national, regional and international levels, based on pro-poor and gender-sensitive development strategies, to support accelerated investment in poverty eradication actions

43. 43 Action Plan The  World Bank  on S eptember 30 , 2020 approved a $600-million loan to cushion the coronavirus pandemic’s impact on poor Filipino households. The latest loan support would help fund the Philippines’ conditional cash transfer program, known as the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program or 4Ps. The amount would also be used to support the  Department of Social Welfare and Development ’s programs to go digital and hasten cash transfers to poor households
