Scope of the Journal

The OPEN RESEARCH JOURNAL on ANTIPOVERTY is a timely international journal responding to the need to define strategies against poverty and social exclusion. Our civilized world very often seems to close its eyes to real problems. It is not just a question of postponing actions in the future, but also a demonstration of poor reflective mechanisms. On the other hand, a vast humanistic network against poverty, consisting of volunteers, inspired minds and organisations with social responsibility, has an excellent performance.

Worldwide action focuses on aspects of poverty, analyses various underlying factors and recommends
actions while focusing its full capacities on anti-poverty visions.

The following are the four pillars of the editing strategy:

• Discussion of the key agenda of poverty in our civilized world
• Discussion of the key reflective actions for anti-poverty, including policies, government regulations,
  community programmes, efficient management of resources, involvement, etc
• Discussion of the role of information technology as key enabler of antipoverty initiatives worldwide.
• Sound Propositions for things we must do.

• Education against poverty and programmes of poverty reduction through human development
