6. Income
$1.90 per person per day threshold for extreme poverty is a
standard adopted by the World Bank and other international
organizations to reflect the minimum consumption and
income level needed to meet a person’s basic needs.
However, the ultra-poor remain virtually
invisible

the only way
to break a cycle of extreme poverty
