“…It is also important to note that these journals predominantly publish their papers in English, yet many researchers in the Global South are not native English speakers [58,59]. This language barrier may contribute to the existing inequalities in the global research productivity on poverty [49].…”

“…Another serious problem is the high fees required for publishing papers in the top 10 leading journals on poverty. Most of the researchers from the Global South have little or no institutional funding and, therefore, could not afford to publish their works in these leading journals [58][59][60]; this, therefore, might have reduced their chances of publishing their works in those highly influential journals.…”

BackgroundPoverty is a significant global problem which can hinder the attainment of the United Nations’ (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Poverty reduction or elimination requires adequate scientific or research contributions, creating socio‐scientific frames that could inform relevant stakeholders in policy planning, implementation and evaluation. This study aims to review the state of global research on poverty (2016 and upwards), since the UN's declaration of SDGs in 2015.MethodsThis study adopted a bibliometric review design. On 31 May 2022, a systematic SCOPUS‐based search was conducted to retrieve all journal papers published on poverty (2016 till 31 May 2022). The bibliometric data of the retrieved papers were analysed using Microsoft Excel and VOSviewer software.ResultA total of 15,143 journal papers on poverty were retrieved, of which 91.2% were published in English, whereas slightly more than half (52.9%) were published in the social sciences. Although all regions of the world sourced journal papers on poverty, however, countries from the Global North, particularly the USA and the United Kingdom, dominated other countries in terms of authorship, funding and institutional affiliations. Among Global South countries, China leads in terms of authorship, funding and institutional affiliations. South America and Africa contributed the smallest volume of journal papers on poverty.ConclusionThere exist global inequalities in research productivity on poverty. The global poverty problem skews to the Global South, but the scientific contributions flow from the Global North. There is a need to narrow the existing inequality gaps in the research productivity on poverty through North–South synergetic research collaborations.

“…Produzir conhecimento e compartilhá-lo é um dos principais ofícios de um acadêmico, se não o seu principal propósito ou aquilo que lhe empresta sentido enquanto ator dentro de determinado campo de conhecimento (Brown, 2005;Ger, Suarez & Nascimento, 2019). A esse respeito, são quase 70 anos de ensino e pesquisa em marketing e em estudos de consumo no Brasil (Richers, 1994;Costa & Vieira, 2007;Falcão, 2014;Veludo-de-Oliveira, Quintão & Urdan, 2014;Boschi, Barros & Sauerbronn, 2016).…”

“…For example, a systematic problem in academia is that local scientists and graduate and undergraduate students are often not offered coauthorship in manuscripts for which their contributions were essential (e.g., project planning, logistics, and knowledge of local biodiversity). Even worse is that research remains unavailable for them and others who contributed substantially, since in most cases, peer-review publications are available behind a paywall (but see [ 2 ]), and they are written in English, which is the second or third language for many Global South researchers [ 3 ]. Furthermore, local communities where Global North scientists come to conduct helicopter research are usually left out of broader impacts and outreach efforts, as these tend to happen in Global North communities.…”
