slugThe current situation, future prospect of Poverty and inequality in Sudan
Journal Title: International Journal of Management, IT and Engineering - Year 2011, Vol 1, Issue 7
Abstract
This research paper aims to address income poverty and inequality in Sudan. Poverty and inequality indicators were computed using both primary and secondary data sources. P-alpha equation, Povstat and Simsip models were used for poverty assessment and simulation. Results showed that more than 65 percent of the population in Sudan living with poverty. Inequality Gini index was 75 percent. The future prospect of poverty in Sudan showed declining trend, growth would slightly reduce poverty and inequality. The combined effect of growth and food prices increase would also reduce poverty and inequality. However, the decomposition of this effect into income and distribution effects, income effect would reduce poverty while the distributional effect would increase extreme poverty indicators.
