In contrast, countries where child poverty is low have rates that are significantly lower than the poverty rates of the population in general. At 5.4 percentage points the increase between 2008 and 2015-16 was largest in Slovak Republic. An increase of more than two percentage points over the same period was observed in France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, and Sweden (Figure 4, Panel A). On the contrary, a fall in the child poverty rate coincided with the rise in median income which has been particularly strong in Chile especially since 2010. In Greece, the increase in the relative child poverty rate was accompanied by a significant fall in median income and thus the poverty line (Figure 4, Panel B). This suggests that not only the proportion of children experiencing poverty increased, but also that the standard of living of poor families declined - as further explained in the next sub-section.
