ADB along with the Government of India supported two phases of participatory poverty assessments in seven Indian states. The studies were supported by the Department for International Development (DFID) and spread across 78 districts and 842 locations covering over twenty thousand poor people. Completed in 2005, the studies brought forth a multitude of perspectives on the issue of poverty. The synthesis report, Learning from the Poor, cuts across the studies to highlight common threads that emerge.

This book attempts one more angle to understanding and addressing the poverty challenge – first hand `learning from the poor'.
