Poverty and education

Poverty in India remains widespread, with 1/4 of the population living on less than $0.40 per day. Lack of access to education exacerbates poverty, as 87% of people in poverty have not completed high school. Living in poverty has significant physical, emotional, social, and educational effects on children, including feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, and not belonging. Improving access to education is key to alleviating poverty in the long term by providing opportunities for employment, healthcare knowledge, and breaking the intergenerational cycle of poverty.
