A comparison of the results of the 2000 and 2010 poverty profile, based on the average income method, shows that there was progress in reducing poverty, albeit far less than expected. The ratio of the incidence of poverty decreased from 53.8 percent in 2000 to 49.6 percent in 2010, representing a reduction of 4.2 percentage points, which is far below the target set in the NPRS-I for 2010, and also shows relative improvement in the depth of poverty. 410 0$aIMF Staff Country Reports; Country Report ;$vNo. 2014/009 606 $aPoverty$zSao Tome and Principe$xPrevention 606 $aSocial Services and Welfare$2imf 606 $aDemography$2imf 606 $aPoverty and Homelessness$2imf 606 $aEducation: General$2imf 606 $aWelfare, Well-Being, and Poverty: General$2imf 606 $aDemographic Economics: General$2imf 606 $aGovernment Policy$2imf 606 $aProvision and Effects of Welfare Program$2imf 606 $aHealth: General$2imf 606 $aEducation$2imf 606 $aPoverty & precarity$2imf 606 $aPopulation & demography$2imf 606 $aSocial welfare & social services$2imf 606 $aHealth economics$2imf 606 $aPoverty$2imf 606 $aPopulation and demographics$2imf 606 $aPoverty reduction strategy$2imf 606 $aHealth$2imf 606 $aPopulation$2imf 607 $aSão Tomé and Príncipe, Democratic Republic of$2imf 615 0$aPoverty$xPrevention. 615 7$aSocial Services and Welfare 615 7$aDemography 615 7$aPoverty and Homelessness 615 7$aEducation: General 615 7$aWelfare, Well-Being, and Poverty: General 615 7$aDemographic Economics: General 615 7$aGovernment Policy 615 7$aProvision and Effects of Welfare Program 615 7$aHealth: General 615 7$aEducation 615 7$aPoverty & precarity 615 7$aPopulation & demography 615 7$aSocial welfare & social services 615 7$aHealth economics 615 7$aPoverty 615 7$aPopulation and demographics 615 7$aPoverty reduction strategy 615 7$aHealth 615 7$aPopulation 676 $a339.46 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund, 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787735503321 996 $aDemocratic Republic of Sa?o Tome? and Pri?ncipe$92612343 997 $aUNINA
