dc.description.abstractThe report is the result of discussions within the World Bank as well as of dialogues with NGOs and other international agencies concerned with poverty and hunger. It summarizes Bank policy on these issues and details a coordinated programme of actions that the Bank, in collaboration with other organizations, will promote in the next few years. The programme will be evaluated periodically and refined based on new knowledge and further consultations inside and outside the Bank. The report is divided into two parts: Part I discusses growth, poverty, and hunger; it focuses on the causes of hunger and on the World Bank's strategy for reducing poverty and hunger by promoting broad-based, employment-intensive growth and by providing basic social services to the poor. It also emphasizes the importance of investing in people and the poor's role in their own development. Part II, specific actions and programmes, deals with direct interventions that can cost-effectively reduce hunger or increase the incomes of the poor. (CAB Direct)en
