The objective is to enlighten development practitioners about observed achievements towards reducing poverty and the factors behind them. Each of the chapters extracts implementation lessons learnt from a subset of case studies prepared along different poverty dimensions, focusing on such factors as the role of commitment and leadership, institutional innovation, learning and experimentation, and external catalysts. Instead of recommending particular solutions or best practices, the book distills key findings from the strategically selected examples and weaves them into a topical narrative.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABSOLUTE POVERTYACCESS TO MARKETSAGRARIAN REFORMAGRICULTURAL SUBSIDIESAGRICULTUREANALYTICAL WORKBASIC NEEDSBENEFICIARIESBUDGET DEFICITSCASE STUDIESCASE STUDYCHARITYCHILD MORTALITYCIVIL SOCIETYCOMMERCIAL BANKSCOMMUNITY PARTICIPATIONCOMPULSORY EDUCATIONCONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORKCONFLICTCOUNTERFACTUALCOUNTRY LEVELCOUNTRY OWNERSHIPDEBTDEVELOPED COUNTRIESDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDEVELOPING WORLDDEVELOPMENT EFFORTSDEVELOPMENT GOALSDEVELOPMENT PARTNERSDEVELOPMENT PRACTITIONERSDEVELOPMENT PROGRAMDEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMEDEVELOPMENT PROGRAMSDEVELOPMENT REPORTDPIPDRINKING WATERECONOMIC GROWTHEGSEMPOWERMENTENVIRONMENTALENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCESEXPENDITURESEXTERNAL FACTORSEXTREME POVERTYEXTREMELY POOR PEOPLEFARMERSFINANCIAL SERVICESFISHERIESFOOD POLICYFOOD POLICY RESEARCHFREE PRIMARYGDPGENDER DISPARITYGENDER EQUALITYGEOGRAPHICAL AREASGIRLSGLOBAL AGENDAGLOBAL INTERESTGLOBAL PARTNERSHIPGOOD GOVERNANCEHEALTH CENTERHEALTH ISSUESHEAVILY INDEBTED POOR COUNTRIESHIPCIMPACT EVALUATIONIMPACT ON POVERTYINCOMEINCOME COUNTRIESINDEPENDENT MONITORINGINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYINTERVENTIONINVESTMENT CLIMATELANDLOCKED COUNTRIESLEARNINGLEARNING PROCESSLEGAL FRAMEWORKLIVING STANDARDSLOCAL GOVERNMENTSLONG TERMLOW-INCOME COUNTRIESMICROCREDITSMICROFINANCEMICROFINANCE INSTITUTIONSNGONONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSNUTRITIONPARTNER INSTITUTIONSPOLICY MAKERSPOLICY REFORMSPOLITICAL ECONOMYPOORPOOR COUNTRIESPOOR MENPOOR PEOPLEPOOR POPULATIONSPOVERTY ALLEVIATIONPOVERTY DECLINEPOVERTY INITIATIVESPOVERTY REDUCTIONPOVERTY REDUCTION EFFORTSPOVERTY REDUCTION PROGRAMSPOVERTY REDUCTION PROJECTPOVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGYPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY HEALTH CAREPRIVATE PROPERTYPRODUCTIVITYPROJECT MANAGEMENTPUBLIC SERVICESPURCHASING POWERPURCHASING POWER PARITYQUALITATIVE EVALUATIONREDUCING POVERTYRESEARCH INSTITUTERESOURCE MOBILIZATIONRURALRURAL AREASRURAL DEVELOPMENTRURAL HEALTHSAVINGSSCHOOLSSECONDARY EDUCATIONSERVICE PROVIDERSSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL FUNDSSOCIAL INCLUSIONSOCIAL PROTECTIONSOCIAL SERVICESSOUTH AMERICASUBSIDIARYSUSTAINABILITYSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTTARGETINGTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETECHNICAL SUPPORTTENANCYURBAN AREASURBAN POVERTYWARWATERSHEDYOUNG PEOPLEWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-6362-1
