Just scrolled through a ranking of the poorest countries in the world in 2024, and honestly, it's pretty grim 😅 South Sudan is at the top, followed by Burundi, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo... sub-Saharan Africa really dominates this list, unfortunately.



What surprised me was to see Pacific countries in the mix—Kiribati, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu—showing that poverty is everywhere, not just in Africa. Haiti also ranks among the poorest countries in the world.

Niger, Mozambique, Malawi, Liberia, Chad... honestly, I didn't even know the exact levels of some of these. And Madagascar, Somalia, Yemen—the humanitarian crises are clearly reflected in the numbers.

It's crazy to see 30 countries on this list and realize that millions of people live in these conditions. The world's poorest countries are truly a reality we forget all too easily when scrolling.
