This report seeks to expand the understanding of poverty and its causes and sets out actions to create a world free of poverty in all its dimensions. It both builds on our past thinking and strategy and substantially broadens and deepens what we judge to be necessary to meet the challenge of reducing poverty. It argues that major reductions in human deprivation are indeed possible, and that the forces of global integration and
technological advance can and must be harnessed to serve the interests of poor people.
