In the last decades there has been an important theoretical development of the concepts of poverty and gender. Taking the development of both concepts in to account, analyzing poverty from a gender perspective allows understanding a series of processes that are involved in the phenomenon, its dynamics and characteristics in certain contexts, which explain the fact that certain groups of people are more exposed to suffer poverty in terms of their gender.
