A brief description of the global poverty trends:-

The proportion of people living in extreme poverty has fallen from 25% in the year 1990 to 21% in the year 2001.

Poverty has declined substantially in China and South East Asian countries as a result of rapid economic growth.

The number of poor has fallen from 606 million in 1981 to 212 million in 2001.

However, in some countries of South Asia (India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh and Bhutan), the fall has been marginal.

In Sub- Saharan Africa, poverty actually rose from 41% in 1981 to 46% in 2001.

Hope it helps...:-)
