How to Tackle Poverty with Co-Produced Activism

“This is an inspiring collection, bringing together many different groups that have been transforming the way anti-poverty policy, research and activism is done in the UK. It combines hands-on guides for how this work is done, with reflections on the challenges involved, as well as some of the theoretical foundations of this work. It is an invaluable tool for everyone who wants to deepen coproduction with people who have lived experience of poverty.” Ben Geiger, King's College London “This thought-provoking and inspiring collection introduces readers to the vibrant landscape of ‘co-produced activism’ shaped by the voices of lived experience. Policy makers – national and local – are among those who would benefit from its insights.” Baroness Lister of Burtersett, House of Lords “This powerful, philosophically rich book explores the theory behind ethics of practice in anti-poverty and social rights campaign work. It argues for the primacy of voice, self-representation, dignity and political agency, foregrounding the power of intimate knowledge in the ongoing struggle for epistemic justice.” Sharon Clancy, University of Nottingham
