Abstract
In 2015, 10% of the world’s population lived in extreme poverty. This number should be reduced to improve the quality of living for millions across the globe. This project aims to look at the progress of the fight against poverty, and to find whether the income of a country has any effect on the poverty rates in that country. We will do this by looking at three countries: Ethiopia, which is lower-income; Brazil, which is middle-income; and Hungary, which is higher-income. We will compare each to the trendline of the world to see how high the country’s poverty levels are. We would also like to see which measures have been taken against poverty in the countries that we will be focusing on. Finally, we will compare poverty levels from all regions of the world.
