How to Tackle Poverty with Co-Produced Activism
Can we truly address poverty without centring the voices of those who live it? Bringing together voices from academia, grassroots activism, NGOs and the UK voluntary sector, this timely and accessible book explores how participatory approaches to activism can drive genuine, inclusive change.
Through short, focused chapters, the authors critically unpack the contested definitions of โco-productionโ, โparticipationโ and โlived experienceโ while showcasing practice models from across the globe. Their practical reflections highlight what ethical, impactful collaboration looks like in action.
Led by an established voice in lived-experience anti-poverty activism, How to Tackle Poverty with Co-Produced Activism offers practical insight and principled guidance for anyone seeking to build fairer, more inclusive systems โ where those most affected are not only heard but are leading the way.
