About

It defines poverty through relative and absolute measures, including the World Bank's $1.25/day threshold, and explores responses such as the Millennium Development Goals and the role of Bretton Woods institutions (IMF, World Bank, GATT). The template also examines the New International Economic Order, the Washington Consensus, and the work of development NGOs. Key nodes like 'Most favoured nation principle' and 'Brundtland Commission' are referenced throughout. This U23201 intro IR poverty, hunger and global inequality template is ideal for students and educators in international relations and development studies.
