Improving Multidimensional Poverty Measurements

The online Multidimensional Poverty Index Assist Tool (MAT) platform enables state officials to construct a tailored national multidimensional poverty index (MPI) using advanced diagnostics. The MAT empowers states to use their microdata surveys to assess the incidence and depth of multidimensional deprivations within their populations, using transparent methods and ensuring accountability. The tool aims to support states in tracking their status and growth and simulating developmental shocks. It also allows regional and temporal comparisons.
