Absolute poverty refers to a condition where an individual lacks the basic necessities for survival, such as food, clean water, shelter, and clothing. An example of absolute poverty is a family living on less than $1.90 a day, unable to afford enough nutrition or access to healthcare, resulting in malnutrition and poor health outcomes. This situation is often seen in developing countries where economic resources are severely limited.
