Global poverty and food security challenges: The equity pillar 
Discussion notes from a brainstorming by
Tom Randolph, Shirley Tarawali, Steve Staal, Nancy Johnson, Mario Herrero, Jemimah Njuki and Carlos Sere presented at the ILRI-World Bank High Level Consultation on the Global Livestock Agenda by 2020

Trade and poverty addis - june 2013
This document summarizes a study examining the effect of trade openness on poverty in Africa. The study uses data from 30 African countries over 1981-2010 to estimate econometric models relating trade openness to poverty levels, while controlling for GDP, education, financial development, and institutional quality. The results suggest that the impact of trade openness on poverty depends on structural characteristics like financial development and education levels. Specifically, the poor only benefit from trade openness when domestic private credit exceeds 17.7% of GDP or primary completion rates exceed 46.7%.

The Other War: Combating Global Poverty
This presentation is about ending poverty in our time. It is about making the right choices that can lead to a much safer world based on a true reverence and respect for human life.
This presentation brings to our attention the daily struggles for survival, and the vast number of impoverished people around the world who lose that struggle. We attempt to demonstrate that all parts of the world have a chance to join an age of unprecedented prosperity, building on global science, technology and markets. However, one can also see that certain parts of the world are caught in a downward spiral of impoverishment, hunger and disease. We demonstrate this by means of case studies.
This presentation attempts at outlining why some countries fail to thrive and how the developed world can assist the rest of humanity get a foothold on the ladder of development.
Global poverty: definitions and developments
Global poverty is a complex issue with varying definitions and measurements. Roughly one third of humanity lives in material poverty concentrated in Africa, Asia, and South America. While definitions of poverty differ and include economic, ethical, and multidimensional measures, global goals aim to alleviate poverty by focusing on direct poverty reduction as well as societal changes like urbanization and climate change. Trends show that those living on less than $1.25 or $2 per day has decreased globally excluding China, though some regions like Sub-Saharan Africa have seen increases in poverty. Exact measurements are difficult and poverty lines may not fully capture the social aspects that are important to individuals' experiences with deprivation.

global poverty scenario
Global poverty has declined substantially but there remain large regional differences. Poverty declined significantly in China and Southeast Asia due to economic growth and investment in education. However, the decline was more modest in South Asia, including India, where poverty declined only marginally despite a reduction in the percentage of poor people. Within India, poverty remains a serious problem in certain states like Orissa, Bihar, Assam, Tripura, and Uttar Pradesh, while there has been a significant decline in other states like Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, and West Bengal.
Global Poverty
Global poverty remains a significant challenge, with over 1 billion people living on less than $1.25 per day according to recent UN estimates.

Achieving the MDGs will require increased funding from developed nations, sustainable economic growth in developing regions, and coordinated international efforts to address issues like climate change and pandemic diseases. While the goals may now be difficult to meet by the 2015 deadline, with commitment and action poverty can still be significantly reduced on a global scale.
