The UN Development Programme’s (UNDP) report highlights that 83.2 percent of the world’s poorest reside in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, exposing significant poverty risks linked to conflict.
The analysis revealed that over one billion people experience acute poverty, with nearly half of them living in countries beset by conflict, exacerbating deprivation across critical areas.
Conflicts have grown in severity and number, causing record casualties and displacing millions while disrupting lives, particularly impacting vulnerable populations, including children.
Research indicated that children in conflict zones suffer disproportionately, with child mortality rates significantly higher compared to peaceful regions, underscoring the dire needs of youth.
