New Research: Professor Brian Nolan, Michele Bavaro (Postdoctoral Research Officer) and Rafael Carranza have conducted research exploring how #poverty persists across generations in 30 European countries. Using data from the 2019 EU-SILC dataset, their paper in 'Research in Social Stratification and Mobility' examines how childhood financial hardship, parental education, and occupation impact current poverty. This study provides valuable insights into the links between childhood disadvantage and adult outcomes. 🔎 Read the full paper here for more details: https://lnkd.in/enfkmucz

📢 Research paper of the week: Implications of child poverty reduction targets for public health and health inequalities in England: a modelling study between 2024 and 2033 The study published this week is the first to explore the #health impact of meeting hypothetical future #childpoverty targets in #England between 2024 and 2033. 📣 The authors found that achieving an ambitious but realistic reduction of 35% on 2023 levels would be expected to result in avoiding a total of 293 #infantdeaths, 4696 children entering care, 458 #childhoodadmissions with nutritional anaemias and 32 650 childhood #emergencyadmissions.

Health and poverty are deeply interconnected. Evidence from around the world confirms the strong link between poverty, hunger, and poor child health. Extreme poverty influences health in multiple ways and it is established that reducing poverty would significantly enhance public health outcomes more than any other intervention. Lancet's recent issue highlights the same (https://hubs.li/Q02CM-Lr0) and urgent need to reduce poverty and build safety nets. #Health #Poverty #PublicHealth #GlobalHealth #EndPoverty #Lancet #Publichealth

The graduation approach is a sequenced intervention that helps the poorest households achieve sustained income and move out of extreme #poverty within a specified period. This explainer illustrates the stages and criteria of the graduation approach, the results of pilot tests, and how governments and #civilsociety can promote its implementation. 🟠 READ https://buff.ly/3OX7XoO #SDG1 #SDG10 #SDG17 Anna Aleksanyan, Suzanne Nazal

Poverty is indeed one of the most pervasive and destructive issues facing the world today. It affects millions by limiting access to basic needs like food, healthcare, and education, perpetuating cycles of disadvantage. Addressing poverty requires comprehensive strategies that include economic development, education, and social support systems. Ending poverty is crucial not just for individual well-being but for global stability and progress. Subu R #poverty #economy #food #healthcare #education #social #people #global

Today, as I delve into a newspaper from 70 years ago, I am struck by the eerie resemblance of its headlines to our present-day struggles. "The poor are becoming poorer," a phrase that could very well be lifted from today’s news. This discovery is a stark reminder of how certain issues persist through generations. Despite technological advancements and economic growth, the structural inequalities that trap people in poverty remain unaltered. It raises important questions about our progress and the effectiveness of our policies over the decades. We need to ask: Why haven't things changed? How can we make better policies? What can we do to help? #Poverty #EconomicInequality #PolicyChange #SustainableDevelopment #EducationForAll #History #SocialJustice.

Non-scientific education leads to an underdeveloped society and low-quality human resources mean a poor society. Without scientific-technical education, a country faces rising poverty due to a lack of a skilled workforce. STEM is crucial for development and prosperity #poverty
