The discussion also highlights the economic impact of diaspora communities, emphasizing that remittances, like Kenya's $4 billion in 2023, significantly outweigh traditional exports, and advocates for dual citizenship and digital nomad visas to attract talent and investment to boost Tanzania's economy.

The World Bank regularly updates the global poverty line to reflect changes in prices and living standards across the world. The new $3.00 line is based on the median poverty lines of 28 of the world's poorest countries, using 2017 PPPs.
