Child Poverty in CEE and the CIS
Truly poor: Households falling below the consumption and the material deprivation thresholds.
Vulnerable to poverty: Households falling below the consumption threshold. Although they do not fall below the material deprivation threshold, their consumption is below the median level of households that are materially poor.
Poor only on consumption definition: Households falling below the consumption threshold. They do not fall below the material deprivation threshold and their consumption is not below the median level of households that are materially poor.
Poor only on material deprivation definition: Households below the threshold for material deprivation. Although above the consumption threshold, they do not have higher consumption than the median of households that are not materially poor.
Rising out of poverty: Households below the threshold for material deprivation. They are above the consumption threshold and have higher consumption than the median of households that are not materially poor.
Not poor: Households above both the consumption and the material deprivation thresholds.
