The aim of this project is to contribute to the theory of poverty measurement by connecting it with other fields of welfare economics, and to better understand how redistributive policies should be designed to decrease poverty.





The PoRESP blog aims at providing
information on scientific events, scientific papers and news on poverty related topics.
