Research Abstract |
This study aims to clarify whether social capital has a positive effect on food intake or household food security of the poor with a view to providing a useful practical framework for making community development strategies more effective in developing countries. The statistical analyses, based on the household or individual data obtained from intensive structured survey conducted by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and World Bank, clearly suggest that the higher the social capital levels are, the less the poor are likely to go hungry.
