Poverty and the inequalities associated with poverty have existed for centuries. The topic has experienced a revival of interest since recent "Make Poverty History Campaigns" have brought the stark realities of world inequalities to the fore. However, public policy documents rarely highlight the contribution that adult education can make towards poverty reduction. This omission perhaps reflects, in part, a lack of understanding of the nature of adult education as a tool for development. This book attempts to plug some of those omissions in understanding for policy makers, practitioners and researchers alike. Beginning with a conceptual analysis of poverty and its relationship to adult education, subsequent chapters offer a variety of international perspectives on issues related to adult education policy, research and practice for poverty reduction. They address one or more cross cutting themes of empowerment/consciousness raising, targeted community participation, sustainability, gender inequalities, social capital, multi-sectoral approaches, and context-based literacies education. These themes all share a common commitment to holistic, pro-poor interpretations of poverty. Some chapters highlight concerns and issues, others demonstrate what can be done if the commitment and political will to make a difference are present. A concluding chapter looks at future research agendas and possibilities.

Public Value Papers are a series arising from the Inquiry into the Future for Lifelong Learning (IFLL). Each paper grapples with issues about how we should understand the effects of lifelong learning and its benefits to learners and wider society in order to give a clearer focus to the policy options involved, and to prompt further reflection and debate. This, the first paper in the series, analyses lifelong learning's impact on poverty reduction in the UK, summarising research-based evidence to contribute to an empirically based understanding of the complex mechanisms involved. Since 1997 a range of government policies designed in particular to tackle poverty, worklessness and neighbourhood deprivation have been introduced. Ricardo Sabates investigates whether increasing participation in adult education and an improvement in skills over more than a decade have been accompanied by reductions in poverty for the population. Arriving at the overall conclusion that participating in adult learning can help substantially to reduce poverty, Sabates analyses empirical evidence from rigorous large-scale quantitative studies, and existing literature on the income effects of adult education, the impact of financial literacy, the employment and health effects of adult learning, basic skills and health literacy, and the impact of lifelong learning on reducing child poverty.
