Poverty is a widespread and global phenomenon, which has pervasive effects on global and local communities. Different social scientific disciplines, vary from sociology to economics, political science to social work, emphasize on the different aspects of the problem, and thus contribute the existing literature on poverty and its causes, pervasiveness and effects in 21st century. Furthermore, there is a profusion of supranational actors, usually lying beyond the state, to tackle poverty. UNDP, World-Bank and local or global civil society organizations work in the field of poverty alleviation and offer a variety of services and solutions to the problem of poverty alongside the nation-states. In this respect, it is crucial to bring civil, public, academic and supranational actors together to discuss different aspects of the problem of poverty and thus to establish global and local platforms to fight against poverty.
Thus, Deniz Feneri Poverty Research Center, thus, to promote cooperation and exchange of knowledge and expertise in the field of poverty alleviation aims to organize an international symposium on poverty between 1st and 3rd of February, 2008 in Istanbul/Turkey.
