Armed conflicts afflicting many parts of the world have taken a huge toll on global poverty eradication programmes, humanitarian assistance and relief provided by the aid agencies. Multilateral development banks and large aid agencies need to play enhanced roles in providing funds to eradicate multidimensional poverty. India needs to hold more vigorous drives to achieve the first of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals — to end all forms of poverty by 2030.

AS the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27) at Sharm El-Sheikh in Egypt kicked off on November 6, the UN Development Programme (UNDP) estimates show that by 2030, climate change could push more than 100 million people back into extreme poverty as well as displace some 200 million people. It is set to emerge as a major planetary-scale cause of upheaval, impinging upon essential ecological processes, flora and fauna and rapidly exacerbating human misery.

On October 17, the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty was observed amid the deepening of global poverty, hunger and malnourishment. It coincided with the release of the 2022 Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) by the UNDP and Oxford Poverty Human Development Initiative. It has estimated that 1.2 billion people in 111 developing countries are living in acute multidimensional poverty.

The largest number of the world’s poor people live is Sub-Saharan Africa (579 million) and South Asia (385 million). Around 84 per cent of the poor live in rural areas. It is double the number of people considered poor on the basis of criteria of living on less than $1.9 per day. The armed conflicts afflicting many parts of the world have taken a huge toll on the global poverty eradication programmes, humanitarian assistance and relief provided by the aid agencies.
