- Poverty refers to the deprivation of basic necessities such as food, clothing, health services, and education that determine the quality of life.
- In economic terms, it is expressed as the poverty line. Development means some measurable improvement in a particular area.
- Alleviation, or even eradication, of poverty is the most important aim of development work. Poverty is related to other problems of underdevelopment, such as unemployment and inequalities.
- It hinders economic development and leads to health, sanitation, and disease issues; housing; and crime, etc. Poverty alleviation, i.e., a set of economic and humanitarian measures such as good governance, economic growth, and government support for health education, is important for development.
