Abstract :
Urban poverty is a multidimensional phenomenon and urbanites due to many deprivations; Lack of access to employment opportunities, adequate housing and infrastructure, lack of social security and access to health, education and personal security are suffering. Urban poverty is not limited to the above-mentioned characteristics and also refers to unstable conditions leading to vulnerability and inability to deal with injuries. Given the importance of the issue of urban poverty, governments are constantly thinking of policies that will reduce urban poverty. The present study is descriptive-analytical. And the statistical population of this research includes reports that are available and their main theme is about urban poverty reduction policies, the statistical sample of which is related to New York City and Brazil and Indonesia. The results of the present study indicate that poverty reduction programs and policies in New York seem to be successful, and the reason for this success is that this poverty reduction program does not only emphasize the economic dimension of poverty, but also its social dimension. Regarding the poverty reduction program and policy of Indonesia and Brazil, it can be concluded that these countries emphasize only the economic dimension to identify poverty as a multidimensional phenomenon, and considering the other dimensions of urban poverty, a large number of poor are ignored in poverty reduction programs.
