Abstract:
Systematizing knowledge and practical tools for engaging companies in sustainable poverty alleviation is a key objective of KIT. This book focuses on the involvement of KIT in pro-poor business engineering, and provides a unique opportunity to reflect on the experiences. It also helps KIT adapt to new circumstances and share insights. By identifying good practices, developing replicable models and tools to guide practice elsewhere, and by disseminating the results to a wider audience, KIT aims to contribute to successful pro-poor business engineering.
