No 46, Global Poverty Monitoring Technical Note Series from The World Bank

Abstract: This note presents the 9th edition of the World Bank’s Multidimensional Poverty Measure (MPM) database, drawing on the latest country data from the Global Monitoring Database (GMD) as of June 2025. The MPM offers a broader view of poverty by examining deprivations along three dimensions of well-being: monetary poverty (measured using the international poverty line of $3.00 per person per day in 2021 PPP), education, and access to basic infrastructure services. This latest edition covers 120 economies for circa 2021, an increase from the 110 economies of the October 2024 update.
