Reflection
According to the report the poverty situation in Iran, the percentage of the population with an income
of under $ 1 (PPP) per day has fallen sharply to 0.62 percent in 2002 from 2.24 in 1995. Amore
important challenge in Iran is to reduce the food poverty line, known as the
“national poverty line” in the Report. According to the latest data, the food poverty line has
significantly decreased from 12.75 percent in 1995 to 8.99 in 2002. So poverty is note able challenge for the future. While gender equality is not a big deal over there. According to my opinion, I think that it is the religious thing as Muslim women are not allowed to go out side with out hijab but yess they are allowed to get education. What's the most interesting thing about this issue is , a large number of women are enrolled in schools and colleges then men.
