| Summary: | Rural poverty in developing countries comes in various forms. Food insecurity, discrimination, human rights violations, inadequate health care, and social protection are just some of the manifestations of poverty that affect the rural population. However, the most severe form of poverty is the lack of access to food for the most vulnerable segments of the population. Several strategic approaches to rural poverty reduction have been developed at the international level and have been implemented specifically in developing countries. These strategies focus on agriculture as the dominant economic activity in rural areas. In addition, the strategies aim to strengthen local rural communities while adhering to the principles of environmental, economic, and social sustainability. |
