This dashboard provides European statistics on income and living conditions, focusing on low income, low work intensity, and material deprivation. It also includes national indicators for social inclusion, monitoring the Europe 2020 target group and specific national priorities. Additional sources like homelessness and unemployment data are integrated to provide a comprehensive overview. The dashboard aims to measure the progress made in reducing poverty and social exclusion within the Europe 2020 social target group.
