01.
Definition of poverty. (30 minutes)
Look at the following slide:
Think about the three definitions of poverty given
there. Which basic ideas do they imply ?
1. Opinion
Create and
make a note of at least one definition of money of your own and at least one
definition of poverty of your own.
Look at the chart derived from the work of Durning A.,
How Much is Enough, Worldwatch Institute,.
The
three social-economic classes.
The
great confusion surrounding definitions related to the reduction of poverty
become evident on reading Barder O, What
is Poverty Reduction ?, Working Paper 170, Center for Global Development,
“29. An ideal aid-supported intervention would meet
both objectives: it would deliver immediate and visible results that improve
the lives of poor people, and it would result in permanent change after the
programme has finished, for example by leaving behind more effective
institutions, physical infrastructure, or by helping to bring about a
realignment of political or other vested interests.”
M.Barder’s sentence is in the conditional form. He supplies four pages of references, but his
research did not lead him to the Model for Integrated Development at website www.integrateddevelopment.org
where solutions to the difficulties he has correctly cited can be found.
