Today, 1 billion fewer people live in extreme poverty than in 1990. Yet 10% of the world’s population – 736,000,000 people – still live on $1.90 a day. October 17 – End Poverty Day – draws attention to the urgent need for every country to invest more and better in people to ensure everyone has a chance at a better life. World Bank staff work hard to make ending poverty a reality, especially through IDA, our fund for the poorest countries. Join us. #EndPoverty #IDAWorks
