The pursuit of a world without poverty is without doubt among the leading global challenges not only for governments but also the poor themselves. This challenge is also in small-scale fishing communities where poverty is persistent and has become a thorny issue to the poor as well as governing actors. Strategies have been formulated and implemented but the results have not been up to the expectations. Why haven't these strategies yielded expected results? This is the central question of this thesis. This study seeks to understand why poverty persists despite the good instruments that have been directed at its alleviation. It examines poverty through studying the underlying factors that determine relationships between and among the many variables that make poverty a multidimensional problem. It argues that the persistent poverty in small-scale fishing communities in Lake Victoria Tanzania finds explanation in the manner in which poverty and its challenges have been understood and addressed.
