This paper summarizes the key elements necessary for eradicating global poverty. It sets out different opinions as to what constitutes extreme poverty, how it is measured, and outlines the general agreement that absolute poverty should remain the first priority. The authors also provide proposals on broadening the definition of poverty, including incorporating relative poverty, a poverty line high enough to reflect poverty in rich countries, and a measure of multidimensional deprivation.
