The authors don’t believe that one major solution (such as foreign aid or population control) is the answer to the poverty-alleviation problem. They believe that the best solutions will involve a partnership between nonprofits, the government and the business sector. Much of the work of helping the poor lies in using tools to understand, influence and assist the poor in becoming a part of developing their own solutions. The authors believe that social marketing has been missing in the fight against poverty. This book differs from others in that it focuses on the fieldwork aspects of trying to solve specific problems of hunger, disease, inadequate schooling, family planning, inadequate or unclean water, and other problems that contribute to poverty.
