Abstract
The major concern for this paper is to show that in spite of the fall of the incidence of poverty between 2005 and 2012, the households remain candidates with poverty in the future following their great vulnerability. The analysis of the robustness of poverty and the vulnerability to poverty required the confrontation of several approaches of the wellbeing. It follows of these approaches which as well rural households as the urban households are prone to a strong vulnerability with poverty: in rural environment, the borrowing rate of poverty is established to 47,3%, the rate of entry rises to 52,75% while the borrowing rate of poverty is established to 51,85% and the rate of entry rises to 50,5% in urban environment. The rural households are slightly more vulnerable to poverty than the urban households and the poverty of the households forwards from generation to generation and does not result from the isolated events, it is thus chronic.
