Poverty Reduction of the Disabled
A third of poor people are disabled in the developing world. How much do we know about their livelihood with hard data? Are they entirely powerless and dependent on family members?

Fighting Poverty with Facts
Fighting Poverty with Facts: Community-based monitoring systems
Nation's Blueprint to True Prosperity
Like many developing nations, the Philippines has been relying on western standards as handed down by American colonialists and perpetuated by the Filipino elite. The heavy focus of this western approach on economic indicators of progress is suited to the elite's interests, since it controls commerce and industries. This book presents the "e;ANT3 Paradigm,"e; a new development paradigm that is more appropriate for developing nations because it is cognizant of the importance of the cultural and spiritual values of the people alongside their economic aspirations. "e;ANT3"e; stands for information technology Applications, social Networking, appropriate Technology, modern but affordable Telecommunications systems, and Training. This paradigm emphasizes community-building and a social organization in which every member has a distinct, vital role to play in the pursuit of the common good of the country.

World Public Sector Report 2023
This report examines the role that national institutional and governance innovations and changes that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic can play in advancing progress towards the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The consequences of the pandemic threaten to derail progress and make the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) more difficult to achieve. Yet the pandemic also sparked rapid innovation in government institutions and public administration that could be capitalized on. Against this backdrop, the report focuses on how governments can reshape their relationship with people and other actors to enhance trust and promote the changes required for more sustainable and peaceful societies. How they can assess competing priorities and address difficult policy trade-offs that have emerged since 2020. And what assets and innovations they can mobilize to transform the public sector and achieve the SDGs. The e-book for this publication has been converted into an accessible format for the visually impaired and people with print reading disabilities. It is fully compatible with leading screen-reader technologies such as JAWS and NVDA.
