In Phase I, the Poverty Reduction (PR) hub studied how different players tackled poverty through聽community-campus partnerships. The goal was to understand how people from different areas of the community could work together to address the root causes of poverty.
In collaboration with several , the PR hub funded community-driven 聽and provided research support aimed at reducing poverty.
The PR hub worked from the position that poverty is:
- Difficult to define in numbers
- Rooted in multiple overlapping causes
- Not always visible
- Unique in the ways it affects people’s lives depending on their specific situation
In addition, poverty:
- Varies across demographics and local contexts
- Shifts as demographics, policies, economies, and contexts change
- Cannot be single-handedly reduced or solved by individuals – the solution takes a community!
