Poverty and comfort?

Hidden Poverty in New Zealand, Fourth National Food Bank Conference

Author: Isaacs, N. P.
Year: 1998
Type: Conference Paper

Abstract:

This paper defines how we define comfort, compares this with the results from some recent research into the conditions found inside New Zealand homes, and then examines how the various income groups have been able to afford this over the past decade. Keeping warm, comfortable and healthy involves many issues which interact in complex ways. The goal of this paper is to start discussion and improve understanding.
