Manchester, UK
8-10 septiembre 2010
The Chronic Poverty Research Centre (CPRC) will celebrate ten years of poverty research with an international conference hosted by the Brooks World Poverty Institute (BWPI) at the University of Manchester. This event will bring together leading poverty researchers and actors for poverty reduction to: (1) review the ‘state of the art’ in poverty reduction; (2) showcase CPRC’s key research findings on chronic poverty; (3) set the research and policy agenda on poverty research for the next 10 years (2010-2020).
The conference will take place just two weeks before the UN General Assembly convenes to review progress towards achieving the MDGs.
We welcome the submission of papers that conceptually explore poverty dynamics; present empirical studies on poverty reduction; explain new methodologies of measuring multi-dimensional poverty; and/or inform policymaking in poverty reduction.
The deadline for submitting abstracts and panel proposals is 31 January 2010.
The conference is funded by the CPRC, the Brooks World Poverty Institute and DFID.
