| description |
The phenomenon of poverty has
traditionally been measured based on the individual's
income. However, more recently, the debate over poverty has
evolved beyond income or lack of it. The condition in which
people have access to basic civil rights, such as an
adequate energy supply, is nowadays considered an important
marker of poverty. This study proposes to analyze energy
poverty in the shantytowns of Rio de Janeiro. The authors
aim is to suggest public policies that can, with support
from electric utilities, contribute to improving the living
conditions of the shantytown inhabitants. The study was
carried out using both quantitative and qualitative data. |
