What is the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI)?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Global MPI is a key international resource that measures acute multidimensional poverty across more than 100 developing countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was first launched in 2010 by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI).<\/span><\/p>\n

The G<\/span>lobal MPI advances SDG 1 \u2013 ending poverty in all its forms everywhere. It also measures interconnected deprivations across indicators related to SDGs 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 11.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Globally:<\/b> 25 countries including India have successfully halved their global MPI values within 15 years, indicating that substantial progress is attainable.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Around 1.1 billion out of 6.1 billion people (just over 18%) live in acute multidimensional poverty across 110 countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Sub-Saharan Africa (534 million) and South Asia (389 million) are home to approximately five out of every six poor people.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Nearly two-thirds of all poor people (730 million people) live in middle-income countries, making action in these countries vital for reducing global poverty.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Children under 18 years old account for half of MPI-poor people (566 million). The poverty rate among children is 27.7%, while among adults it is 13.4%.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Poverty predominantly affects rural areas, with 84% of all poor people living in rural areas.<\/span><\/p>\n

India:<\/b> Around 415 million people exited poverty within a span of just 15 years <\/span>between 2005 to 2021<\/span> in India.<\/span><\/p>\n

The number of people in multidimensional poverty in India decreased from approximately 645 million in 2005-06 to about 370 million in 2015-16 and further to 230 million in 2019-21.Hence, the incidence of poverty <\/span>fell from 55.1% to 16.4% during the period.<\/span><\/p>\n

Deprivation in \u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b<\/span>all indicators declined<\/span> in India.<\/span><\/p>\n

The poorest states and disadvantaged groups, including children and individuals from marginalized castes, experienced the fastest progress in reducing poverty.<\/span><\/p>\n

People who are multidimensionally poor and deprived under the nutrition indicator in India declined from 44.3% in 2005\/2006 to 11.8%in 2019\/2021 and child mortality fell from 4.5% to 1.5%.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
