The studies highlight the importance of including poor communities’ views in development initiatives, providing a detailed analysis of poverty, deprivation, and potential solutions as articulated by the communities themselves.

dc.description.abstractThis paper examines the perspectives of poor women and men on poverty and its alleviation, based on two studies conducted in Bangladesh. Using Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) methodology, the studies provide insights into the views of poor communities regarding their problems, coping strategies, and suggestions for alleviating poverty. The studies cover rural and urban areas of Bangladesh and aim to inform development policy and practice, advocating for the inclusion of grassroots perspectives in policymaking.
