The extreme poor suffer from many handicaps (lack of financial resources, education, employment, housing, health care, empowerment),which have a mutually reinforcing impact, and often lead to social exclusion. Together, the isolation and the state of deprivation in which the very poor live imply that traditional development programs and policies which may be effective in helping the poor may not always work for the poorest.

Reaching the poorest in society remains a challenge for NGOs, governments and aid agencies that design and implement poverty reduction programs. Abstract Acknowledgments Contents 1.

Poverty - Voices of the Poor: Reports. Voices of the Poor consists of three books which bring together the experiences of over 60,000 poor women and men.

The first book, Can Anyone Hear Us? , gathers the voices of over 40,000 poor women and men in 50 countries from the World Bank's participatory poverty assessments; the second book, Crying Out for Change, draws material from a new 23 country comparative study. The final book, From Many Lands, offers regional patterns and country case studies.
