Abstract
Eradicating poverty in all its forms everywhere is the main goal of the United Nations Sustainable Development Agenda for 2030. Based on the importance of the community social work's role in poverty, the study aimed to identify the beliefs of social work students about poverty, its causes, and ways to deal with it. Some of the study's main results included the students' concept of poverty namely, Multidimensional Poverty (financial deprivation, decreased income, poor health, poor housing, deprivation of education, freedoms, and human rights). Regarding their beliefs about the causes of poverty, the constructivist interpretation ranked first, then the individual interpretation, and the fatalistic interpretation ranked last. The poverty level in society was found remarkable, and the anti-poverty programs in Egypt functioned at a medium level. The participants expressed the necessity of changing anti-poverty policies.
