The ‘Power of Partnership: Research to Alleviate Poverty’ conference took place in New Delhi from 3 to 5 December 2018.
The event focused on the ESRC-DFID Joint Fund for Poverty Alleviation Research as it approaches its final phase.
The event provided opportunities for participants to reflect, forge new connections, and build a shared vision for the future of development related social science research emerging from the ESRC-DFID Strategic Partnership. Conference Director, Vicky Johnson (Goldsmiths, University of London), sets the scene in this blog about the power of partnership and pathways out of poverty. An overview of poverty alleviation research encompassing 172 projects focused in 77 countries, and globally, enabled by the Joint Fund is free to download - these and additional resources and information about the event - are available via the event page.
