Our Perspective

Look beyond the obvious | Ajay Chhibber

Since 2009, UNDP has been running a pilot project in Eastern Uttar Pradesh to empower some of the poorest women in rural India so they can provide for themselves and their families economically, but also to allow them to play a stronger role in their households and communities.

If we no longer measure human progress by income alone, then why do we still use income as a measure of poverty?
