Resumen
Descripción
This poverty assessment aims to strengthen the
analytical foundation for poverty-reduction policies
and interventions in Mali. In recent years, important gains have been made across
multiple dimensions of household welfare, but poverty
in Mali remains widespread and extreme. The COVID-19 induced crisis has reversed much of the
progress in poverty reduction achieved in Mali over the
last decade. Rural poverty in Mali is strongly associated with
employment in low-productivity agricultural activities,
large family sizes, and high dependency ratios. Income inequality has increased in recent years, and
geographical disparities in wellbeing have widened.
