Here some central passage from the article of Elle:

"Building structural change needs to be seen through a ‘triple lens’:                        

  1. The individual – understanding one’s own world view
  2. The institution – improving outcomes
  3. The community – working together to improve systems

Bridges uses the definition of poverty as “the extent to which an individual, organization or community does without resources.” Resources come by way of financial, emotional, mental, spiritual, physical, support systems, relationships/role models, and knowledge of hidden rules. Resources are interconnected, and strengths in one area can enhance another. Hidden rules mean understanding value and motivation. For example, for those living in poverty, this includes relationships and survival; for the middle class, it is about achievement; and for the wealthy, it is about financial, political and social networks. A common thread throughout is power, that can play out differently."
