| Annotation | The Voices of Experience project consisted of a series of workshops where women living in poverty came together to express their experiences of poverty and learn more about the policy-making process. It also enabled them to develop policy proposals to improve their situations and present these to policy-makers. These findings outline the participatory research that was carried with women in poverty living in Birmingham, Cardiff and London. The full report, 'Women and poverty: experiences, empowerment and engagement' by the Women's Budget Group, is published by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) and available as a free download on the JRF website.
