Poverty Headcount Ratio at Societal Poverty Lines: % of Population data was reported at 41.200 % in 2018. This records a decrease from the previous number of 47.000 % for 2011. Poverty Headcount Ratio at Societal Poverty Lines: % of Population data is updated yearly, averaging 47.000 % from Dec 2003 (Median) to 2018, with 3 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 61.300 % in 2003 and a record low of 41.200 % in 2018. Poverty Headcount Ratio at Societal Poverty Lines: % of Population data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Sierra Leone – Table SL.World Bank.WDI: Social: Poverty and Inequality. The poverty headcount ratio at societal poverty line is the percentage of a population living in poverty according to the World Bank's Societal Poverty Line. The Societal Poverty Line is expressed in purchasing power adjusted 2017 U.S. dollars and defined as max($2.15, $1.15 + 0.5*Median). This means that when the national median is sufficiently low, the Societal Poverty line is equivalent to the extreme poverty line, $2.15. For countries with a sufficiently high national median, the Societal Poverty Line grows as countries’ median income grows.;World Bank, Poverty and Inequality Platform.
