What if poverty isn’t primarily about income—but about dignity, mindset, and self-agency? What if the people that should be solving poverty are poor people themselves, not governments or institutions?
In this episode of the Impact Innovations Podcast, we speak with renowned social entrepreneur Dr. Martín Burt, author of Who Owns Poverty, founder and CEO of Fundación Paraguaya, and former Mayor of Asunción, Paraguay.
Martín shares the origin story and impact of the Poverty Stoplight, a groundbreaking tool that helps families self-diagnose and overcome multidimensional poverty. He explains why starting with people’s strengths, not deficits, is the key—and how every family, no matter where they live, can define and achieve their own version of a poverty-free life.
