Explanation:
Material poverty would be having insufficient material resources to maintain physical and mental well-being, and protection from the elements. So starving and homeless people would be extreme and obvious examples of such poverty, but then the level rises to include those on welfare, the unemployed, the elderly without pensions. Next level up would include the low-paid, those on casual/zero hour contracts, indeed anyone working but who is unable to pay their bills and is laden with debth.
