Abstract
A Participatory Poverty Assessment (PPA)
was undertaken by the World Bank in collaboration with the
Government of Kenya to complement previous statistical
studies of poverty in Kenya. While the PPA confirmed many
findings of the Welfare Monitoring Survey (WMS), it also
revealed significant new data concerning poverty,
female-headed households, access by the poor to water,
education and health facilities, and challenges facing
indigenous self-help networks. These findings have import
implications for targeting poverty alleviation programs.
