Rural Poverty in Developing Countries by Mr.Mahmood Hasan Khan Pdf
In most developing countries, poverty is more widespread and severe in rural than in urban areas. The author reviews some important aspects of rural poverty and draws key implications for public policy. He presents a policy framework for reducing poverty, taking into account the functional differences and overlap between the rural poor. Several policy options are delineated and explained, including stable management of the macroeconomic environment, transfer of assets, investment in and access to the physical and social infrastructure, access to credit and jobs, and provision of safety nets. Finally, some guideposts are identified for assessing strategies to reduce rural poverty.
The State of World Rural Poverty by Idriss Jazairy,Mohiuddin Alamgir,Theresa Panuccio Pdf
Despite almost four decades and billions of dollars in development activities, we are barely in a position to track the changing dynamics of poverty or to define with conviction the processes that entrap the poor in their misery. Accounting for about 90% of global poverty, rural poverty, through transmigration, is also a main contributor to urban poverty. It is in the rural areas of the world where poverty is most severe in human terms, where the hunger, hopelessness, hardship, and despair commonly associated with entrenched poverty are most pronounced, where basic health services, sanitation, educational opportunities, and other common amenities are most lacking. The alleviation of rural poverty is therefore tantamount to the alleviation of global poverty in its entirety. The State of World Rural Poverty offers the first comprehensive look at the economic conditions and prospects of the world's rural poor.
Tackling rural poverty in developing countries by Great Britain: National Audit Office Pdf
Some 2.7 billion people live in poverty on less than two dollars a day, whilst 1.1 billion live in extreme poverty on less than one dollar a day. The United Nation's Millennium Development Goals aim is to halve this number by 2015 and the Department for International Development has set Public Service Agreement Targets to contribute to this reduction. As some 75 per cent of the world's poor live in rural areas, these targets cannot be reached without the reduction of rural policy. This report looks at rural poverty and the way the DFID tackles the issue, especially in the short and medium term. It is organised into four main sections: the challenge of tackling rural poverty; DIFD's country programme assistance to the rural poor; reaching the rural poor through other funding schemes; and management of the aid budget.
Rural Poverty, Risk and Development by Marcel Fafchamps Pdf
All men and women are subject to risk: illness, accident, death. Some shocks affect their ability to feed and support themselves properly, either temporarily: unemployment, crop failure, and loss of property; or permanently: disability, and skill obsolescence.This report summarises what is known and also what is not known about the sources of risk faced by the rural poor and their coping strategies. It examines the impact of risk and risk-coping strategies on development and the way in which governments and international organisations can assist in dealing with risk and overcoming poverty.

Rural Poverty Report 2001 by International Fund for Agricultural Development Pdf
Progress in reducing rural poverty has stalled. In the 1990s, it fell to less than a third of the rate needed to meet the United Nation's commitment to halve the world poverty by 2015. Although three quarters of the world's 1.2 billion extremely poor people live and work in rural areas, aid toagriculture, their main source of income has fallen by two thirds.In its Rural Poverty Report 2001, the International Fund for Agricultural Development argues that, to be successful, poverty-reduction policies must focus on rural areas. To overcome disadvantages stemming from remoteness, lack of education and health care, insecure and unproductive jobs, highfertility, and (often) discrimination as women or ethnic minorities, the rural poor need; legally secure entitlement to assets (especially land and water); technology (above all for increasing the output and yield of food staples); access to markets; and access to microfinance. Such policies wouldpromote economic growth and help alleviate urban poverty as well. Sustainable reduction in poverty would need creation of a pro-poor policy environment, and allocation of a greater volume of resources targeted to the poor with greater effectiveness. This needs to be complemented by betterpartnership among the government, civil society, and the private sector so that the poor are empowered to take responsibility for their own development.
