Comprehensive Dimensions of Poverty Index

I am also interested into country rankings. This index was made at the beginning of 2025 and ranks every country except for Monaco and Liechtenstein (since these are too small) on 18 indicators of poverty.

The indicators

Infectious diseases (0-100) (https://www.socialprogress.org/social-progress-index)
