Poverty is often seen as having low income and inability to access standardized
services for living. However, poverty measures have failed to measure the
deprivations which are more detrimental in achieving the human freedom and
thereby their well being. Accordingly, development goal is intended to achieve the
benefit that are materially sufficient and disregards the resources which are
intrinsically important. Individual's intrinsic capabilities are often undermined that
function for their overall well being. The challenges are then to increase the
capabilities of the people with adequate freedom and choices that enable them to
enjoy the positive state of life that hey value.
