Global multidimensional poverty rises for first time since 2010

The United Nations Development Programme reports that global multidimensional poverty has increased for the first time since 2010, reversing more than a decade of steady progress. The index measures deprivation across health, education and living standards rather than income alone. The finding signals a major setback in global development efforts and is drawing concern from policymakers and aid organisations.

Why now: The UNDP has released new data showing the first reversal in poverty reduction in over a decade.
