Book Linking Participatory poverty assessments to policy and policymaking

Download or read book Linking Participatory poverty assessments to policy and policymaking written by Carrie Turk and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: January 2001 Much of the qualitative research about poverty in Vietnam over the past 8 to 10 years was overlooked by policymakers, who tended to view it as "unscientific" and lacking in credibility. So why did the four participatory poverty assessments implemented in 1999 grab their attention? The year 1999 was important for poverty-related research and policy development in Vietnam. The General Statistics Office had collected household data in the second Vietnam Living Standards Survey in 1998 and made it available for analysis in 1999. And four participatory poverty assessments (PPAs) were implemented during 1999. Turk's case study describes how government agencies, donors, and nongovernmental organizations collaborated in implementing the PPAs. The considerable amount of qualitative information about poverty produced in Vietnam over the past 8 to 10 years has rarely grabbed the attention of policymakers, who tend to view such information as "unscientific" and lacking in credibility. By contrast, the PPAs implemented in 1999 have been widely circulated, used, and quoted. What was different about those PPAs that led their findings to be brought into local and national policy debates, as previous findings had not been? Working partnerships among donors and nongovernmental organizations were important and helped build consensus on the research findings, but more crucial was the active engagement of government partners from the very early stages. Establishing a Poverty Working Group provided a structure for implementing the PPAs, for feeding analysis through to the poverty assessment, and for keeping government fully involved. The Poverty Working Group now supports the government in drafting its poverty reduction strategy. Strong World Bank leadership, financial support from the U.K. Department for International Development, the technical expertise and commitment of the PPA partner agencies, and the availability of recent high-quality household survey data played an important part in ensuring the PPAs' credibility. This paper--a product of the Hanoi Country Office, East Asia and Pacific Region--is part of a larger effort in the region to encourage greater participation by poor households in policymaking and programming for poverty reduction.

Book Can the Poor Influence Policy

Download or read book Can the Poor Influence Policy written by Caroline M. Robb and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Participatory Poverty Assessments (PPAs) use participatory research methods to understand poverty from the perspective of the poor by focusing on their realities, needs, and priorities. The principle of a PPA is to ensure that the intended beneficiaries have some control over the research process. Communities share their knowledge and are involved in analyzing the results. This book proposes a threefold classification of PPAs based on their varying impacts: 1) deepening our understanding of poverty; 2) influencing policy; and 3) strengthening policy implementation. There is no single model for PPAs. However, this book suggests some minimum standards and good practice for participatory policy research that aims to affect policy change. PPAs are highlighting the potentially powerful role the poor can play in analyzing poverty, developing interventions for its reduction, and assessing the impact of projects and policies. The challenge for the Bank and the rest of the development community is to effectively integrate the perspectives and values of the poor into the process of policy and project formulation and implementation.

Book Well Begun but Not Yet Done

Download or read book Well Begun but Not Yet Done written by Valerie Kozel and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the key findings from a new poverty assessment for Vietnam, led jointly by the World Bank and the Vietnam Academy of Social Sciences (VASS). It takes a fresh look at the lives of poor men, women, and children, and explores the constraints and opportunities they face today in rising out of poverty. The book aims to do three things. First, it proposes revisions to Vietnam’s poverty monitoring system—via better data, updated welfare aggregates, and new poverty lines—to bring these more in line with economic and social conditions in present-day Vietnam. Second, it revisits the stylized facts about deprivation and poverty in Vietnam, and develops an updated profile and diagnostic of poverty using data from the most recent Vietnam Household Living Standards Survey (VHLSS 2010), complemented by new qualitative field studies. Third, it aims to forge a consensus around some of the key challenges for reducing extreme poverty and promoting shared prosperity over the next decade, including changing regional patterns of poverty and wealth, high and persistent poverty among ethnic minorities, substantial and increasing vulnerability, and rising inequality in outcomes and opportunities.
