It depends on which poverty line you are comparing it to because every nation has a different level of poverty. The CIA World Factbook states Iraq population below the poverty line to be at 25%. As a ,US. soldier who was deployed for over a year to Iraq, I can tell you that it is extremely higher compared to that of United States standards. Anyone who has ever been to Iraq knows that there are still people living in the biblical era as far as herding there flock, living in mud brick housing, and traveling by camel. I can assure you I am not joking here it is more so common in the south among the Shiites.

How can you calculate Poverty Gap index?

The Poverty Gap Index (PGI) measures the intensity of poverty by calculating the average shortfall of the income of the poor from the poverty line, expressed as a percentage of the poverty line. To calculate it, first determine the total income shortfall for all individuals below the poverty line, then divide this total by the overall population and multiply by the poverty line. The formula is: PGI = (1/N) * Σ((Z - Yi)/Z), where N is the total population, Z is the poverty line, and Yi is the income of each individual below the poverty line. This index provides insight into the depth of poverty in a population.
