Poverty Research Resources
CROP (The Comparative Research Programme on Poverty) is a programme of the International Social Science Council (ISSC), hosted by the University of Bergen. We build independent, alternative and critical knowledge and education which can inform policy. CROP has since 2009 been in a process of restructuring and reorganization. See our new Core Objectives and Strategic Plan 2010-2011.
