    Profiling Multidimensional Poverty and Inequality in Kenya and Zambia at Sub-National Levels

    CONSUMING URBAN POVERTY WORKING PAPER Profiling Multidimensional Poverty and Inequality in Kenya and Zambia at Sub-National Levels No. 03 | 2017, September MUNA SHIFA MURRAY LEIBBRANDT Southern Africa Labour and Development Research Unit University of Cape Town Series Editors : Dr Jane Battersby and Prof Vanessa Watson Consuming Urban Poverty Project Working Paper Series The Consuming Urban Poverty project (formally named the Governing Food Systems for Alleviating Poverty in Secondary Cities in Africa) argues that important contributions to debates on urbanization in sub-Saharan Africa, the nature of urban poverty, and the relationship between governance, poverty and the spatial characteristics of cities and towns in the region can be made through a focus on urban food systems and the dynamics of urban food poverty. There is a knowledge gap regarding secondary cities, their characteristics and governance, and yet these are important sites of urbanization in Africa. This project therefore focuses on secondary cities in three countries: Kisumu, Kenya; Kitwe, Zambia; and Epworth, Zimbabwe. The support of the Economic and Social Research Council (UK) and the UK Department for International Development is gratefully acknowledged. The project is funded under the ESRC-DFID Joint Fund for Poverty Alleviation Research (Grant Number ES/L008610/1). © Muna Shifa, Murray Leibbrandt 2017 Muna Shifa Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Southern Africa Labour and Development Research Unit, University of Cape Town.
