Or does it see poverty alleviation as primarily about giving material things to the materially poor? Does the organization work through or in conjunction with local churches? Does the organization seem to understand the distinction between relief, rehabilitation, and development? Does the organization seem to apply the principles of participatory, asset-based development?

We do, however, have many books and training resources designed to help organizations implement healthy, sustainable economic development programming.
