摘要
The primary objective of the United Nations Development Programme to 2030 is to lift more than 736 million people out of extreme poverty (UN, 2019). In this sense, this paper addresses the potential contributions of transport policies to poverty reduction in the Global South. Several studies addressing this topic are qualitatively assessed through an extended version of Church et al.'s (2000) framework of transport-related exclusion. Insights on topics that pervade the interactions between transport and poverty are discussed to shed light on how transport policies can effectively tackle the intergenerational poverty transfer. Finally, this work concludes by connecting such insights and gaps of literature to propose a convergence of the reviewed studies emphasising the importance and urgency of a new standard of transport policies strongly committed to eradicating poverty.
