The clock is a customized version of the world poverty clock developed by World Data Lab, aimed at monitoring progress against extreme poverty, an aspiration of the United Nations’ first Sustainable Development Goal - SDG1.  The Clock provides real-time poverty estimates till 2030 for the majority of countries around the world.
