This 2024 Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) report overlays violent conflict data with multidimensional poverty data to better understand their interlinkages across countries and over time. The Uppsala Conflict Data Program (UCDP) is the primary data source, but sensitivity analyses were also run using other key conflict datasets. The report finds that MPI values tend to be much higher in conflict-affected settings. And in countries affected by protracted conflict, poverty reduction is reversed, stagnant or slower. This year’s update of the global MPI database includes new data from 20 countries. It presents MPI data from 112 countries covering 1,359 subnational regions. The results show that 1.1 billion of 6.3 billion people live in acute multidimensional poverty, over half of them children. Common deprivations include a lack of adequate housing, sanitation, electricity, cooking fuel, nutrition and school attendance. Reaching the last mile to eliminate global poverty requires careful attention to people living in contexts of violent conflict.
