Call for evidence about the priorities of people with lived experience of poverty in the UK

20 Mar 2024 - 14:19 by michelle.foster

Have you been involved in, or are you aware of UK-based work between 2008 and 2024 that enabled those affected by the economic injustice of poverty to articulate the issues that they face and what they feel are the most important things to invest in?

GMCVO and Greater Manchester Poverty Action have been funded by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) to conduct an evidence review that collates and themes issues that are repeatedly deemed to be important to address.
