Nexus Between Poverty and Sustainable Development

 
Raj Kumar Sen (Editor)
Synopsis

The papers contributed at a conference probe numerous concerns relating to poverty and the need for sustainable development. They view the linkage between poverty and sustainable development and call for a policy framework incorporating the need to address poverty as well as usher in sustainable development. They study sustainable agriculture and rural development in the context of liberalisation and consider sustainability in agricultural growth taking into consideration intensive cultivation and soil degradation. They analyse the poverty-environment nexus as well and impact of the employment programme on poverty. With a case study of the Chilika Lake in Odisha, they scrutinise unsustainable fisheries and the poverty concern. They take up the case of sustainability of river Mahanadi in the context of poverty and sold waste disposal. They also take up issues of health linked to poverty such as poverty and the availability of safe drinking water and environmental diseases.
