A Typical Scene: Five Exposures to Poverty

Ravi Kanbur

No 48921, Working Papers from Cornell University, Department of Applied Economics and Management

Abstract: Over the past decade, I have been involved with an “Exposure and Dialogue Program” (EDP), which literally exposes analysts and policy makers to the lived reality of poor women’s lives by getting them to spend a few days experiencing that life. After each EDP, participants are encouraged to write up their experiences in the form of “personal” and “technical” notes. This compendium brings together the personal notes I did for my five exposures.
