Poverty hitting pupils' learning, survey suggests
Many pupils living in poverty come to
school hungry, tired and in worn-out clothes, a survey by the ATL teachers'
union has suggested.
More than three-quarters of 627 primary, secondary and college teachers in
England, Wales and Northern Ireland who responded to the survey believed they
taught pupils living in poverty.
And about 40% said the problem had increased since the recession
The government said it was targeting investment at the poorest families.
More than 85% of the teachers who responded to the survey said they believed
that poverty had a negative impact on the well-being of pupils they taught.

Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs) are prepared by member countries in broad consultation
with stakeholders and development partners, including the staffs of the World Bank and the IMF.
Updated every three years with annual progress reports, they describe the country’s macroeconomic,
structural, and social policies in support of growth and poverty reduction, as well as associated
external financing needs and major sources of financing. This country document for the
Republic of Uganda, dated March 2010, is being made available on the IMF website by
agreement with the member country as a service to users of the IMF website.

Urbanisation and Poverty
Volume I - 2009
Some of DFID’s work to address urban poverty is impressive and is making a noticeable
contribution towards meeting the Millennium Development Goal 7 target on slum
upgrading. However, the Department needs to sharpen and refine its approaches to urban
poverty. The last five years have seen rapid urbanisation, almost all of it within developing
countries, yet DFID—along with other donors—has downgraded its support to urban
development over this period. This process should be reversed.
The Department overwhelmingly focuses its efforts to address urban poverty in Asian,
rather than African, countries. This balance needs to be redressed. Africa is the world’s
fastest urbanising region and it has the highest proportion of slum dwellers. Without a new
and comprehensive approach to urban development in Africa, a number of cities could
face a humanitarian crisis in as little as five years’ time, given the huge expansion of their
urban populations. Addressing urban poverty offers the opportunity to tackle wider
development issues such as: unemployment and crime; social exclusion; population
growth; and climate change and the environment.

From the World Bank, August 2008
The developing world is poorer than we thought, but no less successful in the fight against poverty
by Chen Shaohua and Martin Ravallion
The paper presents a
major overhaul to the World Bank's past estimates of global poverty,
incorporating new and better data. Extreme poverty-as judged by what "poverty"
means in the world's poorest countries-is found to be more pervasive than we
thought. Yet the data also provide robust evidence of continually declining
poverty incidence and depth since the early 1980s. For 2005 we estimate that 1.4
billion people, or one quarter of the population of the developing world, lived
below our international line of $1.25 a day in 2005 prices; 25 years earlier
there were 1.9 billion poor, or one half of the population. Progress was uneven
across regions. The poverty rate in East Asia fell from almost 80 percent to
under 20 percent over this period. By contrast it stayed at around 50 percent in
Sub-Saharan Africa, though with signs of progress since the mid 1990s. Because
of lags in survey data availability, these estimates do not yet reflect the
sharp rise in food prices since 2005.

World Bank’s $1.25/day poverty measure- countering the latest
criticisms
M. Ravaillon - January 2010
(Reply to Angus Deaton’s paper, “Price Indexes, Inequality and the Measurement of World
Poverty”)
Since its 1990 World Development Report (WDR) on Poverty, the World Bank has
anchored its international poverty lines to the national poverty lines used in
the poorest countries. The original “$1 a day” line was a typical line amongst
low-income countries in the data available at the time of the 1990 WDR. This is
acknowledged to be a frugal line; naturally richer countries have higher
national poverty lines. One could hardly argue that the people in the world who
are poor by the standards of the poorest countries are not in fact poor. This
gives the global poverty line a salience in focusing on the world’s poorest that
a higher line would not have. Even so, the Bank has never insisted on using just
one line; indeed, in its work with specific developing countries, the Bank uses
the national poverty line considered most appropriate in each
country.
Naturally there is now much more data available than was the
case in 1990. The original data set on national poverty lines covered only 22
developing countries, all for the 1980s and mainly drawn from academic studies.
This sample had particularly weak coverage of Africa and the lines were
sometimes only for rural areas and some excluded non-food needs. Since then,
there has been a large expansion in the number of countries that have set their
own national poverty lines. In its latest update, the Bank has used national
poverty lines for 75 developing countries.

Global
Poverty and Inequality: A Review of the Evidence
Francisco H.G. Ferreira and Martin Ravallion
Drawing on a compilation of data from household
surveys representing 130 countries, many over a period
of 25 years, this paper reviews the evidence on levels and
recent trends in global poverty and income inequality.
It documents the negative correlations between both
poverty and inequality indices, on the one hand, and
mean income per capita on the other.
It points to the
dominant role of Asia in accounting for the bulk of the
world’s poverty reduction since 1981. The evolution of
global inequality in the last decades is also described,
with special emphasis on the different trends of
inequality within and between countries. The statistical
relationships between growth, inequality and poverty are
discussed, as is the correlation between inequality and
the growth elasticity of poverty reduction. Some of the
recent literature on the drivers of distributional change in
developing countries is also reviewed

"This report outlines lessons learnt regarding the principal effects of climate change on 15 cities
in low-income countries, and what makes them vulnerable to these effects.
Coastal cities are susceptible to a rise in sea level and are made
vulnerable by the low-lying land they are often built on, while dryland
cities suffer from scarce water resources due to extended periods of
climate change-induced drought. In these and other inland cities, the
level of poverty, the rapid pace of urbanization and a lack of education
about climate change increase vulnerability and aggravate the effects of
climate change. Innovative urban policies and practices have shown that
adaptation to some of these effects is possible and can be built into
development plans. These include community-based initiatives led by
organizations formed by the urban poor, and local governments working in
partnership with their low-income populations".

The report is the first to measure the size of markets at the base of

Globalization, employment and poverty in Ghana
Globalization has definitely created opportunities for various parts of the economy to
gain access to larger pools of resources as well as markets. While this may generally
be perceived to have impacted positively on the beneficiaries, there are also
indications that globalization has introduced new risks to environments that were
hitherto closed to those risks. The increased risk may, in some cases, have accentuated
poverty and worsened income distribution in parts of the country. |
M. Nissanke and E. Thorbecke, 2005
The impact of globalization on the World's poor: transmission mechanisms
This process of globalisation is one of the most critical developments affecting the
evolution of national economies. Globalization offers participating countries new
opportunities for accelerating growth and development but, at the same time, it also
poses challenges to, and imposes constraints on policy makers in the management of
national, regional and global economic systems. While the opportunities offered by
globalization can be large, a question is often raised as to whether the actual
distribution of gains is fair, in particular, whether the poor benefit less than
proportionately from globalization – and could under some circumstances actually be
hurt by it.

Traps and Global Development
Is global
poverty today the fault of the poor or part of a vicious cycle?
By
Stephen C. Smith
More than 800 million across the world suffer from chronic hunger. Is it their
fault? No, says Stephen C. Smith, the author of “Ending Global Poverty: A Guide
to What Works.” Instead, these people are trapped in a vicious cycle. He
examines 12 common poverty traps and argues that sometimes traps are
deliberately set by the rich to ensnare the poor — while the rich reap the
financial benefits.

World Development Report 1990: Poverty
"This Report is about poverty in the developing world -in other words, it is concerned with the poorest of the world's poor. It seeks
first to measure poverty, qualitatively as well as quantitatively. It then tries to draw lessons for policy from
the experience of countries that have succeed in reducing poverty. It ends with a question that is also a challenge:
what might be achieved if governments in rich and poor countries alike made it their goal to attack poverty in this closing
decade of the twentieth century?"...

Capitalist Social Terrorism
Note by Róbinson Rojas: Capitalist market work
concentrating capital in the hand of a minority and creating capitalist economic
terrorism (as I defined it elsewhere) because capital concentration give also
overwhelming political power to the big capitalists and their political servants. From the
above capital social terrorism arises, which dramatically polarizes society. United States
is the best example of this capitalist social terrorism in action which Hurricane Katrina
uncovered for the whole world to see. In United States like in any modern capitalist
society creation of wealth goes parallel to creation of inequality and poverty. The
readers below, taken from The Washington Post and The New York Times, are a useful
description of the main features of capitalist social terrorism. (6 September 2005)

million more people were living in poverty in 2004 than in 2001, and 4.6 million more

Losing Our Country
By Paul Krugman
"The middle-class society I grew up in no longer exists. Working families have seen
little if any progress over the past 30 years. Adjusted for inflation, the income of the
median family doubled between 1947 and 1973. But it rose only 22 percent from 1973 to
2003, and much of that gain was the result of wives' entering the paid labor force or
working longer hours, not rising wages.
But the wealthy have done very well indeed. Since 1973 the average income of the top 1
percent of Americans has doubled, and the income of the top 0.1 percent has tripled."

The end of poverty
Economic possibilities for our time

News Release - March 1, 2005:
"Extreme poverty can be ended, not in the time of our

Earth Institute at Columbia University, whose twenty-five years of experience
observing the world from many vantage points has helped him shed light on the
most vital issues facing our planet: the causes of poverty, the role of
rich-country policies, and the very real possibilities for a poverty-free
future. Deemed "the most important economist in the world" by The New York Times
Magazine and "the world's best-known economist" by Time magazine, Sachs brings
his considerable expertise to bear in the landmark The End of Poverty: Economic
Possibilities for Our Time, his highly anticipated blueprint for world-wide
economic success — a goal, he argues, we can reach in a mere twenty years

Redistributing Global Inequality.
A thought experiment
by Jozsef Borocz
The United Nations proclaimed the period 1997-2006 as the ‘First United Nations
Decade for the Eradication of Poverty’. The 1995 UN resolution recognised the
existence of global inequalities that have deepened over time and assigned different tasks
to donor (wealthy) nations and developing countries to ensure a greater equity among
nations. This article focuses on the fiscal feasibility of a plan for global inequality
reduction, a project that can be defined as a large-scale historic social process of
social change aiming to diminish ‘oligarchic wealth’ in favour of a less
extremely unbalanced structure of distribution, that is, ‘democratic wealth’.
The project proposes global collective action to reduce interstate inequality in per
capita economic performance. A successful implementation of such a project would, however,
require the construction of social and political institutions leading to political action
by a majority of humankind.

From the Chronic Poverty Research Centre
The Chronic Poverty
Reports are the flagship policy engagement publications of the
Chronic Poverty Research Centre around the world.
Chronic
Poverty Report 2004-05
The first major
international development report to focus on chronic poverty. This
report examined the dimensions of chronic poverty - the number of
people who suffer it, where they live, who they are and why chronic
poverty exists.
Chronic
Poverty Report 2008-2009: Escaping Poverty Traps:
The second report
looks in more depth at possible solutions for chronic pverty. It
identifies five main traps which create chronic poverty, and sets out
key policy responses. The publication of this Report is
accompanied by Policy
Briefs, highlighting key arguments and policy points in a shorter
format; and fifty Background
Papers offering a wealth of extra detail and research.
National
Chronic Poverty Reports
CPRC Partners around
the world also publish national Chronic Poverty Reports, looking at
the dimensions of chronic poverty, and possible policy responses, in
their countries or regions.

Is decentralisation vital for poverty
reduction?
In a series of development paradigms, decentralization
that carries the premises of democracy is one of the latest development strategies to
reduce poverty. According to the glossary (KIT Information and Library Services, ILS,
2002), "decentralization is the gradual process of transforming power and resources
from central government to the lower level of government, such as the regions, provinces,
districts and municipalities." Although this definition does not explain how
decentralization can reduce poverty, empirical evidence indicates that decentralization
provides better accountability and responsiveness. When a society is decentralized, social
capital has a better chance to sustain itself and participation at different local levels
gives a community a role of a direct client and controller over the society's own needs
(Katsiaouni, 2003). |

Health, Shocks and Poverty Persistence (PDF 156KB)
In this paper we review the evidence on the impact of large shocks, such as drought, on
child and adult health, with particular emphasis on Zimbabwe and Ethiopia. Our focus
is on the impact of shocks on long-term outcomes, and we ask whether there are
intrahousehold differences in these effects. The evidence suggests substantial fluctuations
in body weight and growth retardation in response to shocks. While there appears to be
no differential impact between boys and girls, adult women are often worse affected by
these shocks. For children, there is no full recovery from these losses, affecting adult
health and education outcomes, as well as lifetime earnings. For adults, there is no
evidence of persistent effects from transitory shocks in our data.

Redistribution
Does Matter. Growth and Redistribution for Poverty Reduction (PDF
655KB)
Recent development literature has placed priority on poverty reduction, and on possible
growth enhancement from a more equal distribution of assets and income. At the same
time, empirical work consistently shows that economic growth is no more than distribution
neutral. In that context, this paper explores the relationship among growth, inequality and
poverty, and demonstrates the following general conclusions:
1) a redistributive growth
path is always likely to be superior to a distribution neutral path (‘trickle down’) for
reducing poverty;
2) a redistributive growth path is always superior if a country’s per
capita income and inequality are relatively high; and
3) a static redistribution from the rich
to the poor is superior to a redistributive growth path in its effect on poverty for most
countries, but not for all.
The paper then considers policy that might be used to make
growth more equitable.

THE LEAST DEVELOPED COUNTRIES REPORT,
2004
The Least Developed Countries Report 2004 assesses the
relationship between international trade and poverty within the LDCs, and
identifies national and international policies that can make trade a more
effective mechanism for poverty reduction in these countries.
The Report argues that international trade can play a major positive role in
reducing poverty in the LDCs. However, in practice, this is not happening in
many of them. In some, this failure is due to a weak trade performance, but most
LDCs achieved higher export growth in the 1990s than in the 1980s. The failure
of trade expansion to allow poverty reduction has been related to weak linkages
between trade and economic growth. Moreover, there is a tendency for export
expansion in economies with mass poverty and major financial gaps to generate
exclusionary rather than socially equitable economic growth. Civil conflicts, in
some LDCs, have been closely associated with impoverishing trade.
