     (A/RES/47/196)
     In a world characterized by an unprecedented level of economic development, technological means and financial resources, millions of persons are living in extreme poverty is a moral outrage. Poverty is not solely an economic issue, but rather a multidimensional phenomenon that encompasses a lack of both income and the basic capabilities to live in dignity.
     Persons living in poverty experience many interrelated and mutually reinforcing deprivations that prevent them from realizing their rights and perpetuate their poverty, including:
     dangerous work conditions
     unsafe housing
     lack of nutritious food
     unequal access to justice
     lack of political power
     limited access to health care
