Poverty

The WDC Thematic Portal on Poverty provides access to global poverty data sets, documentation, maps, news, links and analysis tools for those interested in the spatial distribution of global poverty and its relation to the environment. This is in support of the core mission of the WDC for Human Interactions in the Environment, which is to facilitate effective solutions to the problems faced by researchers seeking better understanding of human-environment interactions.
