✦ Synopsis

A social analysis of poverty and survival strategies among women in Uganda using both qualitative and quantitative data collection techniques shows heterogeneity among the disadvantaged group of women. This article argues that lack of sensitivity on the part of the policy makers to real-life diversities among poor women hinders eective impact of poverty reduction policies/interventions. Various factors contribute to the existence of dierences among women and this inΒ―uences the various ways in which dierent people perceive and interpret conditions around them and struggle to put into practice notions of reducing poverty. An understanding of rural diversities and design of appropriate policies towards poverty reduction is recommended.
