Abstract
This paper explores the relation between economic growth and poverty, and develops the methodology to measure separately the impact of changes in average income and income inequality on poverty. The paper also provides a link between the growth rates in various sectors of the economy and the total poverty. The methodology proposed is applied to the data taken from the Côte d'lvoire Living Standards Survey conducted in 1985.

The cross section results failed to support the view that a faster rate of growth is systematically associated with higher inequality than can be expected given the state of development realized, and there was strong support for the proposition that relative inequaltiy increases substantially in the early stages of development.
