Four focus groups met several times to discuss the concept of
poverty, the necessities one needs in order not to be poor and what
monthly budget is currently required to afford necessities in the
Netherlands. Each group developed a common point of view that was
elaborated in detailed consensual budgets for various types of
households. As it is the first time the "consensual budget
standards method" has been applied in the Netherlands, the report
also discusses the merits of the approach for poverty research and
budget counselling.
Stella Hoff is a senior researcher in the group Labour, Income
and Social Security of the Netherlands Institute of Social
ResearchSCP.
