815315 $2.15 a day - total shortfall international-$ at 2017 prices The total shortfall from a poverty line of $2.15 a day. This is the amount of money that would be theoretically needed to lift the income or expenditure of all people in poverty up to the poverty line. However this is not a measure of the actual cost of eliminating poverty, since it does not take into account the costs involved in making the necessary transfers nor any changes in behaviour they would bring about. We calculate the total annual shortfall from the poverty line ('poverty gap') from estimates of the poverty gap index produced by the World Bank using the following formula: Total annual poverty gap = Poverty gap index x total population (including both poor and non-poor) x $2.15 x 365. 2023-10-12 10:35:21 2024-04-08 12:14:22     1967-2021 6268   $
