How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The development of strategies to reduce poverty and inequality is the main priority of sustainable development policy worldwide.Currently, the problem of economic inequality and poverty is one of the most acute problems in Kazakhstan.This is because the mass protest of the people in January 2022 made us realize that the poverty line in Kazakhstan is one of the lowest indicators in the world.The article analyzes the current state of socioeconomic inequality and poverty, assesses the state of low-income large families in the Republic of Kazakhstan.During the analysis of the current state and assessment of poverty and inequality in the country, it was revealed that the scale of poverty in Kazakhstan varies regionally, which indicates mainly Despite the existing differences and income inequality between the regions, there is no centralized support program for large families in Kazakhstan.Since the current methods of social policy are ineffective in combating poverty, it is recommended that the government consider the mechanisms and tools of a strategy to overcome income inequality and poverty in the country by creating high-quality jobs in underdeveloped regions.
