What is Multidimensional Poverty

Have you ever experienced the pain of hunger? Are you familiar with the taste of impure water? Do you know how badly sleeping on a footpath hurts? Are you aware of the pain of being deprived of basic necessities of life? Can you explain how lacking behind because of financial constraints hurt?

Many of us won’t have ever experienced any of this pain but does this allow us to become insensitive to those who go through this plight daily? Absolutely not, being privileged it is our responsibility to lift the underprivileged. We have people around us who are badly affected by poverty and many of them are compelled to live even below the poverty line.
