global MPI

This paper provides an analysis of deprivation interlinkages using the global multidimensional poverty index (MPI). We suggest to distinguish deprivation profiles, bundles, and co-deprivations to illuminate particular aspects of the joint distribution.

This 52st Methodological Note presents the methodology and technical decisions behind the global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) 2022.

In this blog entry I explain a recently developed approach to use simulations for multidimensional poverty when even contemporary micro-data are unavailable. In our application we use the global Multidimensional Poverty Index but this approach is applicable and potentially useful for other development indicators as well.

In my talk On track or not? Projecting the global multidimensional poverty index at the VI Congreso Internacional de Estudios del Desarrollo, I present insights of this ongoing research with implications for other development indicators.

In this article we share some reflections on using simulation techniques in the analysis of multidimensional poverty.

In this joint webinar of the Human Develpoment Report Office (HDRO), the Institute for International Economic Policy (IIEP) and OPHI, I present results of our paper On track or not? in which we develop modelling framework for computing projections of global multidimensional poverty.

In this paper we evaluate the potential impact of COVID-19 and policy responses on global multidimensional poverty. Our results suggest a potential global setback to poverty reduction of around 9 years.

This 51st Methodological Note presents the methodology and technical decisions behind the global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) 2021.

In my presentation The production process of the global MPI at the 2021 Stata conference, I introduce key elements of the global MPI workflow and present solutions with Stata for particular problems.

The global MPI was revised in 2018. This paper provides an empirical analysis of the revised global MPI, including the robustness of country orderings to changes in key parameters. The paper also compares of revised and original specification.
