Abstract
This chapter, together with the following two, addresses the relationship between poverty and disability, the core part of this monograph. The first section reframes this relationship, offering some theoretical repositionings. It then moves on to address the impacts of disability on poverty. The rest of this chapter, together with Chapter 5, is devoted to exploring the factors and processes impacting and shifting this poverty for disabled people based on evidence from this study. Chapter 6 follows up closely, addressing the family-level dynamics and impacts.
