The objective of the overall research project is to examine a range of current city planning initiatives in order to identify effective poverty focused approaches at policy level. The findings of this exercise will be used to inform the development of materials intended to support effective approaches to city and municipal planning and management, with a particular focus on poverty reduction through CDSs. The literature review is concerned not only with CDSs themselves but also on the context within which they operate, the overall approach they might take and the components that might be included in them. It reviews literature relating to the context and content of city development strategies, approaches to development and urbanisation, theories of poverty, economic growth and poverty reduction, participation, governance and the responses to poverty of a range of national and international agencies.)
