Book Synopsis Indigenous Peoples and Poverty by : Robyn Eversole
Download or read book Indigenous Peoples and Poverty written by Robyn Eversole and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together two of today's leading concerns in development policy - the urgent need to prioritize poverty reduction and the particular circumstances of indigenous peoples in both developing and industrialized countries. The contributors analyse patterns of indigenous disadvantage worldwide, the centrality of the right to self-determination, and indigenous people's own diverse perspectives on development. Several fundamental and difficult questions are explored, including the right balance to be struck between autonomy and participation, and the tension between a new wave of assimilationism in the guise of 'pro-poor' and 'inclusionary' development policies and the fact that such policies may in fact provide new spaces for indigenous peoples to advance their demands. In this regard, one overall conclusion that emerges is that both differences and commonalities must be recognised in any realistic study of indigenous poverty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When they were first introduced more than a decade ago, Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs) were roundly welcomed. However, research shows that PRSPs are failing to deliver. Millions of dollars, directed via governments and civil society, have been spent on development programmes that are having no real impact on the ground. Research suggests scant coordination between various stakeholders, while governments have lacked the technical capacity or shown little or no political will to engage civil society and take forward policies that benefit the poor and marginalized or take gender considerations into account. At the same time, the process has suffered from corruption and misuse of funds, with little accountability to the populations of recipient countries. More than 10 years on, PRSPs have thus failed to move communities out of poverty and, crucially, have largely ignored the plight of minorities and indigenous peoples. The author advises that all parties need to urgently reassess the process, or the PRSPs will never be able to meet their promises to the poor, most particularly minorities and indigenous communities.
Book Synopsis Indigenous Peoples, Poverty, and Development by : Gillette H. Hall
Download or read book Indigenous Peoples, Poverty, and Development written by Gillette H. Hall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-30 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents poverty systematically for the world's indigenous peoples in developing regions in Asia, Africa and Latin America. The volume compiles results for roughly 85 percent of the world's indigenous peoples. It draws on nationally representative data to compare trends in countries' poverty rates and other social indicators with those for indigenous sub-populations and provides comparable data for a wide range of countries all over the world. It estimates global poverty numbers and analyzes other important development indicators, such as schooling, health and social protection. Provocatively, the results show a marked difference in results across regions, with rapid poverty reduction among indigenous (and non-indigenous) populations in Asia contrasting with relative stagnation - and in some cases falling back - in Latin America and Africa.

Book Synopsis Indigenous People and Poverty in Latin America by : George Psacharopoulos
Download or read book Indigenous People and Poverty in Latin America written by George Psacharopoulos and published by Ashgate Publishing. This book was released on 1996 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous people constitute a large portion of Latin America's population and suffer from severe and widespread poverty. They are more likely than any other groups of a country's population to be poor. This study documents their socioeconomic situation and shows how it can be improved through changes in policy-influenced variables such as education. The authors review the literature of indigenous people around the world and provide a statistical overview of those in Latin America. Case studies profile the indigenous populations in Bolivia, Guatemala, Mexico and Peru, examining their distribution, education, income, labour force participation and differences in gender roles. A final chapter presents recommendations for conducting future research.

Book Synopsis Indigenous and Tribal Peoples by : Manuela Tomei
Download or read book Indigenous and Tribal Peoples written by Manuela Tomei and published by International Labour Organisation. This book was released on 2005 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous and tribal peoples represent about five per cent of the world's population but over 15 per cent of the world's poor. The widening of inequalities in multi-ethnic societies with indigenous and tribal populations highlights the fact that conventional anti-poverty policies fail to address the roots of their social and economic exclusion or recognise their needs, aspirations and rights. This publication contains details of an ILO audit of 14 poverty reduction strategy papers which examine the position of indigenous and tribal populations in a range of countries including Bangladesh, Kenya, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Vietnam and Zambia.
Book Synopsis Integrated Community-Managed Development by : L. Jan Slikkerveer
Download or read book Integrated Community-Managed Development written by L. Jan Slikkerveer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of recent advances in Integrated Community-Managed Development (ICMD) as an innovative strategy for the community-based development of local institutions in order to achieve lasting poverty reduction and empowerment. The original approach presented here to improving the lives and livelihoods of the poor takes a critical stance on the failing concept of conventional community development, as it is based on the shifting paradigm of 'bottom-up' cooperation and development, where recent regional autonomy policies are enabling national services to successfully integrate with local institutions at the community level. Based on recent experiences in South-East Asia, where the implementation of an alternative approach to integrating financial, medical, educational, communication and socio-cultural services has led to increased community participation and impressive poverty reduction, the book highlights the theoretical, methodological and practical aspects of this innovative strategy. The potential offered by applying the newly developed 'ICMD formula' worldwide as a function of themes, principles and services is reflected in the book’s diverse range of contributions, written by respected researchers and practitioners in the fields of development economics and financial management.

Book Synopsis Minority and Indigenous Rights in the International Development Goals by :
Download or read book Minority and Indigenous Rights in the International Development Goals written by and published by Minority Rights Group. This book was released on 2001-08-01 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of discrimination against minorities and indigenous peoples must be factored into strategies for reaching the International Development Goals (IDGs). In all regions ofthe world, minorities and indigenous peoples are among the poorest ofthe poor, and often lack the political influence to overcome their marginalization. They should therefore be the prime beneficiaries of the international efforts to halve poverty and to improve human development. There is a risk, however, that the IDGs could be said to have been ‘achieved’ for a country, yet their impact on minorities and indigenous peoples could have been negative, as resources are diverted to majority groups. The IDGs can best be met if minorities and indigenous peoples are at the centre of poverty reduction strategies. Ensuring that programmes address the particular inequalities faced by minorities and indigenous peoples will yield more effective development projects, fewer barriers to economic participation, a stronger voice for minority and indigenous communities, and good conditions for conflict prevention. Governments and multilateral and bilateral development agencies need to immediately review their IDG policies to ensure that the rights and needs of minorities and indigenous peoples are taken fully into consideration. They must ensure minorities and indigenous peoples’ participation in the development of programmes aimed at meeting the IDGs for 2015. They also need to move beyond the limited set ofindicators used to measure progress towards the goals, to include a regular assessment ofwhether minority and indigenous communities are benefiting equally from development programmes. Please note that the terminology in the fields of minority rights and indigenous peoples’ rights has changed over time. MRG strives to reflect these changes as well as respect the right to self-identification on the part of minorities and indigenous peoples. At the same time, after over 50 years’ work, we know that our archive is of considerable interest to activists and researchers. Therefore, we make available as much of our back catalogue as possible, while being aware that the language used may not reflect current thinking on these issues.
