A New Perspective on Poverty presents a new perspective on poverty in the Caribbean region using qualitative research methods, presented through poor people's own voices, the realities of their lives. It gives an indepth analysis using specialised software, of the extensive qualitative data generated through participatory poverty assessments to achieve a better understanding of the terms used by the poor to describe poverty; the coping strategy of the poor; the causes of poverty as understood by the poor; and solutions offered by the poor.
