Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Poverty is measured in different ways depending the statistics or data emplyed by organisations, governments or policies, social programs.

The whole dimensions should integrate the social, natural and not only the economic factors in order to define povertiy. This means using larger socio political contexts and enabling to measure the perceptions of the "poor ". The concept of absolute poverty is often used in order to define a minimum of standars, according to which nobody is expected to be under.

The use of absolute poverty tends to include the infation process, the effort to make a worlwide comparison establishg tresholds in a global context. Then it becomes more reliable and objective.
