The Re-thinking Poverty conferences try to approach homelessness from as many different angles as possible. The aim is to develop new ways of thinking about and discussing poverty so that people active in the field, wherever they are from, can improve their way of doing things.
Each Think Tank has a theme. The issue is discussed by all kinds of people: experts, researchers, homeless people, specialists or anyone who has some relevant experience.
