Tackling Urban Poverty: Finding the Right Policy Mix

û A national strategy to enhance the quality of life and
competitiveness of Canada
Æs cities must grapple with the growing challenge
of urban poverty.
Poverty has increased in Canadian cities in the past two decades. It has
also become more concentrated. Without a joint effort by governments at all
levels, these trends could become self-reinforcing. The recipe for that
joint effort is the subject of a new report from CPRN
Æs Family Network.
Urban Poverty: Fostering Sustainable and Supportive Communities, by
Anne-Marie Séguin and Gérard Divay of the Institut national de la recherche
scientifique, Urbanisation, Culture et Société, looks at what is needed to
foster supportive, socially sustainable communities in poor neighbourhoods
in major cities across the country.
You can read this report, and another new one, The Federal Role in Canada
Æs
Cities: Overview of Issues and Proposed Actions, at the CPRN site:
