Summary
Dumisani Nyoni looks at how poverty is often represented in the West and challenges some of the assumptions we make about it. The perspectives of the poor are seldom taken into account in global discussions about poverty and poverty alleviation. There is therefore a real need to explore the full breadth of debate and bridge understanding. Only then can we find truly appropriate solutions.
