Abstract

Undeveloped neighborhoods and multidimensional poverty are the two issues that rising countries encounter the most frequently. The goal of the study was to find concrete evidence of inclusive sustainable community development and poverty reduction in the chosen Sindhi regions. For the study, a survey that was conducted in five districts of Sindh yielded replies from 230 respondents. The study is based on a quantitative analysis of primary data gathered from five selected districts in the Sindh province of Pakistan, which was afterwards submitted to descriptive and inferential analysis using SPSS. Four research topics, covering a wide range of aspects of integrated and sustainable community development and poverty reduction, are addressed by the findings. The study examined the relationship between complex poverty and broad-based, long-term community development. The study examined the relationship between complex poverty and broad-based, long-term community development. Additionally, the impact of individual and group income levels on growth is examined. The findings of the study will be beneficial in creating inclusive community development strategies that will reduce poverty.
