Discussion-Poverty and Discrimination

Poverty and discrimination are linked as one often leads to the other and vice versa. The poor are a target for discrimination due to their circumstances, while discrimination due to ethnicity, race, or gender reduces the number of economic opportunities an individual might get.

You also examine the reasons for the poverty of these segments and its implications for social policy development.
