Dear all,
Please see details below of forthcoming conference.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the many seminal contributions Peter Townsend made to science was a paradigm shift in poverty measurement methodology in the 1968/69 Poverty in the United Kingdom Survey.
On Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd January 2011, this free Second Memorial Conference will examine the current state of the art of poverty measurement around the world. Many of the world's leading researchers will explain the latest advances in poverty measurement methodology for policy purposes in their own countries and regions.
The conference is being funded by the ESRC as part of a Large Grant on Poverty and Social Exclusion in the UK (http://www.poverty.ac.uk/).
