3. INTRODUCTION TO
POVERTY
 Poverty is a state or condition in which one lacks
the financial resources and essentials for a certain
standard of living. Poverty can have diverse
social, economic, and political causes and effects.
 Definition of Poverty:
 “The economic definition of poverty
encompasses a standard of living filled
with deprivation, malnutrition, poor
sanitation, lack of access to safe
drinking water, education, health care,
and other social services, and no
survival safety net. But poverty
encompasses more than this”.

4. WHAT IS
POVERTY?
 Poverty is a global issue. There are people in
every country with a standard of living that is
significantly lower than that of others.
 Nevertheless, the absolute number of people
living in poverty has decreased since 1990,
especially in the poorest countries in the world.
 Therefore, there is reason to hope that further
poverty reduction can occur. The Introduction
outlines the pervasiveness and trends in
poverty around the world; the many different
causes of poverty that embed themselves in
social, political, economic, educational, and
technological processes, which affect all of us
from birth to death; and considers why poverty
matters.
 Overall, the economy suffers if systematic
public policy does not address poverty.

6. HOW POVERTY STARTED IN PAKISTAN.
 Despite, a long list of
causes, the research
emphasizes on the
causes like; the lack of
good governance,
negligence of agriculture
sector, market
distortion/high rate of
inflation, trade deficit
dilemma, discriminatory
education policies, unfair
distribution of allocation
and resources in
education across the
country,
 While economic
vulnerability is a key
factor in the rise of
poverty in Pakistan,
vulnerability also arises
from social
powerlessness, political
disenfranchisement, and
ill-functioning and
distortionary institutions,
and these also are
important causes of the
persistence of
vulnerability among the
poor.
