Abstract

Poverty, which is a serious problem for all countries in these days, has gained momentum due to economic social and
ecological problems resulting from environmental degradation. Especially, with the accelerating migration
phenomenon, the distinctive separation of urban and rural areas has also affected the severity and structure of the
problems. Assessment in the form of urban and rural poverty is important in terms of addressing the problems within
their own structure and finding solutions. However, rural poverty is a more intense and widespread phenomenon than
urban poverty. Rural poverty, which is gaining momentum with the phenomenon of migration, reaches dimensions that
threaten the whole world and requires urgent measures to be taken. In this context, the fight against poverty has been of
the last importance for the sustainable development because economic and social impacts of poverty affect sustainable
development negatively. Essentially, sustainability is the basic answer to supplying today's needs without risking
supplying the needs of future generations, and the poverty issue prevents sustainability and also it is the the result of the
failure to achieve sustainability. Sustainability approach and understanding of poverty together are important for solving
the problem of poverty.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the rural poverty in the context of the sustainability approach in the increasingly
aggravating poverty problem. In this context, sustainable policies and rural poverty problem are considered jointly to
reduce of the severity as a solution in the theoretical framework.
