Poverty is expected to remain a global problem over the next decade, and many women will still experience extreme poverty in 2030. The data shows the millions of women predicted to live under each international poverty line, 1.90, 3.20, and 5.50 U.S. dollars per day. Sub-Saharan Africa is forecast to have the highest number of women under each poverty line, followed by Central Asia and South-Eastern Asia.
