Despite reductions in the percentage of people experiencing income/consumption poverty, and non-income poverty, in Bangladesh an estimated 60 million people remain poor. Many of these people experience chronic poverty they are poor for extended periods of time, die in poverty and transfer poverty to the next generation. The chronic poor are heterogeneous but often they are concentrated in particular areas and experience social exclusion for a range of reasons (gender, age, disability, and social identity). They receive few benefits from contemporary state, market or social action.

The programme seeks to make efforts to reduce poverty in Bangladesh more effective by deepening the understanding of those who are chronically poor, of the processes that keep them in poverty and of the policy measures that will help them to overcome poverty and vulnerability. This goal is to be achieved by the production and dissemination of policy relevant research findings to government agencies, donors and civil society and by developing the capacity of Bangladeshi research institutions to undertake research on chronic poverty. A particular feature is the publication of the Bangladesh Chronic Poverty Report every two years
