➡️ deprivations tend to couple (MD poor are less likely to exit existing deprivation + more likely to enter new deprivation
➡️patterns often stable over time

On track or not? Projecting the global Multidimensional Poverty Index
This paper proposes a framework for modelling projections of multidimensional poverty. We use recently published repeated observations of multidimensi…
Empirical analysis features 70+ countries.
We also discuss implications for other non-monetary indicators: accurate projections require proper account of upper and lower bounds of outcome variables. Sometimes overlooked.

A world map illustrates the share of the population living in multidimensional poverty, defined as deprivation in health, education, and living standards. The map employs varying shades of purple and pink to indicate the percentage of the population affected by multidimensional poverty in different countries.
Countries are marked with a gradient from light pink (representing 0% of the population living in multidimensional poverty) to dark purple (representing 100%). For some countries, specific percentages are highlighted, such as 91% in Niger, 84% in Chad, and 80% in the Central African Republic. Areas with no data are shown in diagonal stripes. The footer notes the data comes from Alkire, Kanagaratnam, and Suppa (2024) as part of the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) 2024. It mentions that the estimates are based on recent household survey data from 2011 to 2023, but for 62% of countries, the data refers to the period after 2018. The chart is published by Our World in Data
In many countries, more than half of the population faces poverty in multiple dimensions
