One of the key issues of the globalized world is poverty. We can assume that poverty is only a phenomenon for developing countries, according to Eurostat statistics, that one quarter of European Union citizens are at risk of poverty or social exclusion. Although "European poverty" is relative and incomparable to poverty globally, it is considered a brake on social development with the consequences of social exclusion of individuals. The Europe 2020 Strategy shows the importance of poverty and sets targets and indicators of poverty and social exclusion. The thesis dealt with the comparison of the development of indicators of poverty in EU28, modeling and clustering of these indicators. Regions with income inequality have been found to have higher indicator values and that the development of poverty and social exclusion set in the EU targets can be reached.
