| Broader impacts of network: The RPN will have a variety of broad impacts. We involve undergraduates, graduate students and faculty from under-represented groups in all activities. Current U.S. members of RPN include women and people from diverse economic and ethnic backgrounds who will be involved in building this research network and international collaboration. Our emergent and evolving network includes sociologists, geographers, political scientists, historians, anthropologists, economists and philosophers who will organize and participate in international conferences, publish papers and seek research funding to expand our work. RPN has an open collaboration and dissemination strategy 2 through (currently) seven national poverty centers as well as international poverty researchers and institutes in Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America. RPN scholars will expand the network and disseminate research, educational and policy resources through our website, journal articles, an edited volume, policy briefs, social media, meetings and our professional networks. We will produce and disseminate web-based metadata resources designed to help investigators around the world build comparative measures that move the poverty research community towards robust analyses of relational poverty. |
