By 2030, 78 percent of non-fragile states

will achieve Sustainable Development Goal 1 to end extreme poverty, while only 19 percent of fragile states are expected to achieve this goal. Furthermore, only about half of all fragile states will reduce the absolute number of people in extreme poverty between 2020 and 2030.

Is it possible to eradicate poverty completely?

The World Bank projects that it's possible to end extreme poverty by 2030. But, it would take a heroic effort. The number of people in poverty will have to decrease by 50 million each year. That is the equivalent of about a million people each week for the next 15 years.
