CPRC has the overreaching aim to challenge existing ideas about

researchers about the processes that underpin chronic poverty.
It also aims to strengthen the capacities of researchers and
research and advocacy organizations to document, analyze, and
develop policy recommendations about chronic poverty. |

methodologies that make policy more effective in assisting the
chronically poor. |
| CSPP Activities: |
