    By the end of this course participants will have:

    • have an understanding of the nature, roots and causes of poverty and what poverty means to those experiencing it. Examples will be drawn from our experiences on poverty issues
    • have an understanding of the relationship between inequality and poverty
    • be aware of ways in which common prejudices and stereotypes (stigma) can lead to discrimination and the unfair treatment of people experiencing poverty
    • be able to identify changes and improvements which can be made to work practices to improve service delivery

    Who should attend?

    All management and frontline workers who wish to have a better understanding of poverty issues and would like to identify ways in which they could engage more effectively with individuals and communities facing poverty and social exclusion.
