What is vulnerability to poverty class 9?

Vulnerability to poverty is about the risk of becoming poor. It describes certain groups with a greater probability of falling into poverty in the future. Think of people who lack options or a safety net. This risk is higher during bad times, like natural disasters, job loss, or illness. Groups like widows, disabled persons, or casual laborers are often considered more vulnerable. They simply have fewer resources to cope when a crisis hits and can easily be pushed into poverty.
