• Event Info : 'Ending Poverty In South Asia: Ideas That Work' is a compilation of essays by World Bank to provide solutions for the eradication of poverty inspite of all odds.
  

Despite, or perhaps because of, its large number of poor people, South Asia has been a leader in innovations that empower the poor on a large scale. This volume of the South Asian case studies is an inspiration not just to South Asians, but to anyone who dreams of a world free of poverty.

Ending Poverty in South Asia: Ideas That Work is an excellent compendium of empirical evidence on how poverty not only can be reduced but eliminated. A must for all practitioners of poverty reduction programmes.
