| Indicator name | a) Poverty headcount ratio at 3.00 $ a day (2021 PPP) (% of population) |
| Global / Proxy indicator | Global indicator |
| Description of indicator | According to World Bank methodology, this indicator is defined as the percentage of the population living on less than $3.00 a day at 2021 international prices. The 'international poverty line' is currently set at $3.00 a day at 2021 international prices. |
| Unit | (%) |
| Available disaggregation | - |
| Calculation | Poverty headcount ratio at 3.00 $ a day (2021 PPP) (% of population) = (The number of people whose total expenditure is below the poverty line of $3.00 in terms of purchasing power parity / Total population) * 100 |
| Comparability | Comparable over time. Produced in full compliance with global metadata. |
| Revision | - |
| Other information | The current extreme poverty line is set at $3.00 a day in 2021 Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) terms, and this amount represents the average of the national poverty lines found in 23 low-income countries (Foster et al., 2025). The new poverty line maintains the same standard for extreme poverty—that is, it is based on the typical poverty line observed in the world’s poorest countries—but has been updated using the latest data on the cost of living in developing countries. |
