Abstract:
There have been few studies that examine the Theory of Support Need in tackling cumulative poverty. This insight is virtually unnoticed. Very little is known. This paper investigates social marketing technique as a creative and innovative methodology model for poverty intervention, from the perspective of young people and community organizations. This comes as a result of drawing heavily from a mixed-methods research data and literature documentary evidence. It then used descriptive analysis to isolate business support strategies and start-up finance opportunities identified in the main empirical research. The paper argues that a multidimensional support network is critical and can significantly improve poverty eradication effort, which policy-makers ought to embed into the whole tackling poverty tackling discourse.
