Chronic Poverty Research Centre (CPRC)

Copy Link
Coordinating organisation: Institute for Development Policy and Management, University of Manchester
Description: Objectives:
An improved understanding of the dynamics of poverty and a higher profile of the chronically poor amongst researchers and policy makers.
Background:
The central aim of CPRC is to create knowledge that contributes to both the speed and quality of poverty reduction, with a focus on assisting those who are trapped in poverty, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. To this end, the Centre has three primary objectives, structured around three distinct streams that will be carefully sequenced and closely integrated:

- The objective of THEMATIC RESEARCH is to deepen the understanding of poverty dynamics and particularly of the nature, causes and remedies of chronic poverty, including what the chronically poor already do to try to escape poverty, through analysis and development of appropriate combinations of research methodologies.
