| Description: | This policy document on women and poverty is the culmination of three years
of work on the issue by the Agency. It draws on both the experience of local
women's projects in marginalised communities and research and analysis
which the Agency has undertaken.
In its first three-year Strategic Plan published in 1987, the Agency recognised
that the burden of poverty often falls on women, particularly those isolated at
home with young children, or those struggling to bring up families on low
incomes and in poor environments, single parents and the victims of domestic
violence as a result, the Agency, in its subsequent work programmes, initiated
or support too a wide variety of activities oriented to reducing the effects of
poverty among women |
