Blog post on poverty in Mozambique grabs the attention of Mail & Guardian Africa
The release of the Mozambique’s Fourth Poverty Assessment in late October in Maputo has brought good news to Mozambique. Despite recent economic and political challenges, the findings of the report show significant gains in the fight to reduce poverty and the improvement of living conditions across an array of measures and approaches.
On 8 November, UNU-WIDER’s Senior Research Fellow, Channing Arndt, and Director, Finn Tarp, published in The Conversation an article explaining the poverty and well-being approaches used in the report and the challenges being drawn for the future.
The article was republished by the Pan-African news portal Mail & Guardian Africa, which welcomed the good news in its business section.
