Drafted by Hugh Frazer with the support of the EAPN Social Inclusion Working Group, the EAPN explainer on poverty and inequality in the EU sets out to provide a simple introduction to the poverty debate. This focuses primarily on current perspectives on the nature and extent of poverty, its causes and its links to inequality. It explains how poverty is understood and measured currently in the EU, and highlights some of the shortcomings of these approaches. This new updated version includes the most recent data for 2009. This explainer aims to make poverty more visible, understood, and acted on, as part of the build-up to EAPN's campaign to 2010: the EU year against poverty. (Bron: website EAPN)

This is the 3rd in a series of EAPN booklets called Explainers, which set out to 'explain' key issues and debates, which are priorities within the EU poverty discourse, in understandable, everyday language. They are aimed primarily at people working in civil society organizations, but also to anybody who is concerned with how to make progress on reducing poverty and social exclusion in the EU.
