The committee is composed of recognised academic authorities in the field of poverty and poverty-related research. Committee members are appointed by the International Social Science Council in agreement with the University of Bergen on the basis of academic achievements and as representatives of a variety of geographic regions and scientific disciplines.

Transition from CROP to a new ISC-UiB Programme in 2019

In early 2019, as the ISC and UiB were negotiating the future of CROP, five members of the 2017-2018 Scientific Committee prepared a document on
The Achievements and Future Realignment of The Comparative Research Programme on Poverty (CROP) as input to the ongoing process. 

This document provides a detailed overview of CROP's engagement and production from 1993-2018.
