Australia has a poverty rate of 13.6% with over 35 million people living in poverty. The poverty rate spiked to 16.1% during the COVID-19 pandemic. Poverty is caused by factors like unemployment, low literacy, and lack of opportunities. Those considered poor earn less than $457 per week for a single adult. The government aims to reduce poverty through increasing access to education, job creation, unemployment benefits, and minimum wage increases. COVID-19 has negatively impacted poverty levels and more action is needed to achieve the UN's goal of ending poverty.
