1.2 By 2030, reduce at least by half the proportion of men, women and children of all ages living in poverty in all its dimensions according to national definitions

Goal 1. End poverty in all its forms everywhere

The at-risk-of-poverty rate represents the share of persons whose equivalised disposable income is below relative poverty line. It does not show the actual number of poor people, but rather how many of them have an income below the at-risk-of-poverty threshold. 

Equivalised disposable income is the total household disposable income evenly distributed among the members of the household according to the modified OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) equivalence scale. In accordance with this scale, first adult member of the household receives the value of 1, other adults aged 14 and over 0.5, and children under the age of 14, 0.3. Household income does not include income in kind. The at-risk-of-poverty threshold (relative poverty line) represents 60% of the median equivalised disposable income and it is presented in dinars.

The cumulated weights of persons whose equivalised disposable income, for a given breakdown, is below the at-risk-of-poverty threshold are divided by the cumulated weights of persons who belong to the same breakdown.
