This tentative set of policy options was identified via an analysis of rural poverty determinants complemented with an evaluation of relevant current public programs and six in-depth thematic studies that bear on critical components of the proposed integrated policy approach aimed at reducing rural poverty in the NE and SE of Brazil: 1) the dynamics of the Brazilian small farm sector, 2) rural labor markets, 3) rural land markets, 4) rural non-farm employment, 5) rural education, and 6) rural pensions. While this study emphasizes primarily microeconomic events--such as the impact of schooling, income transfers, and access to land and credit--poverty reduction requires both economic growth (macro-level) and specific anti-poverty policies (micro-level). 2013-08-28T13:21:20Z 2013-08-28T13:21:20Z 2001-12-27 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2001/12/1764488/brazil-rural-poverty-alleviation-brazil-towards-integrated-strategy-vol-1-2-policy-summary http://hdl.handle.net/10986/15409 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Pre-2003 Economic or Sector Report Economic & Sector Work Latin America & Caribbean Brazil
