Grameen Foundation has done some breakthrough research to help understand how well microfinance does to actually lift people out of poverty. Determining how many people are in poverty is difficult because the cost of living [food, shelter, clothing, health care] varies by country and countries measure poverty differently. Grameen Foundation has studied several countries so far and will expand their statistics.
