It suggests local, national, and global actions and policies that can help break the cycle of poverty, paving the way for the next generation to realize their potential and improve their lives. 2017-10-02T17:00:40Z 2017-10-02T17:00:40Z 2018-05-09 Book 978-1-4648-1210-1 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/28428 English en_US Equity and Development CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank Washington, DC: World Bank Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Publication
