The Alkire-Foster Method
Alkire, S., & Foster, J. (2011). Counting and multidimensional povertymeasurement. Journal of Public Economics 95(7), 476-487.
Framework:
Information about n people, i = 1, . . . , n, in d dimensionsj = 1, . . . , d .
xij is achievement of person i in dimension j :
X =
x11 x12 · · · x1dx21 x22 · · · x2d
......
. . ....
xn1 xn2 · · · xnd
Order of aggregation: over dimensions (within row) first, then overpeople.
Compare composite indicators: over people (within column) thendimensions.

The Alkire-Foster Method
Step 1: set deprivation cutoffs and determine whether each individual isdeprived in each dimension. Deprivation matrix:
D =
1 (deprived) 1 (deprived) 0 (non-dep)0 (non-dep) 1 (deprived) 0 (non-dep)1 (deprived) 1 (deprived) 1 (deprived)
Step 2 (Identification of the poor): set identification cutoff k (egk = 1/2) and determine censored deprivation score ci (k) for eachindividual:
c( 12 ) =
23 (poor)0 (non-poor)1 (poor)
Step 3 (Aggregation): average censored deprivation score over thesample to obtain the poverty index: M0 = 1
n
∑ni=1 ci (k) = 5/9

The Alkire-Foster Method
Key properties of M0:
May be decomposed M0 = H × A
H headcount, proportion of sample who are poorA intensity, average number of deprivations among the poor
Subgroup decomposability: meaningful and consistentdecomposition by subgroups (gender, rural/urban, regions)
Consistent decompositions not generally feasible for compositeindicators
Other properties include symmetry/anonymity, replicationinvariance, poverty/deprivation focus, dimensional breakdown,weak monotonicity

The Alkire-Foster Method
Data requirements:
Representative survey at the level of the unit of analysis(individual, household)
Does not require cardinal achievement indicators
Compare composite indicators: underlying indicators musthave a cardinal interpretation
Note that all indicators must be available from the samesurvey
(Or data sources must be matched at the level of unit ofanalysis)
Compare composite indicators: indicators based on differentdata sources may be combined

Alkire-Foster Method The Global MPI Policy Use Public Communication
The Global MPI
Implementation of the Alkire-Foster Method
Launched in the Human Development Report 2010
Documented by Alkire and Santos, World Development, 2014
Computed from nationally representative survey data: DHS,MICS
MPI estmates give poverty ‘snapshot’ at a precise point in timeCompare composite indicators that combine indicators fromdifferent data sources: ambiguities when monitoring changesover time
Comparable across countries and over time
Sampling errors computed, total error explored and risksdocumented

Alkire-Foster Method The Global MPI Policy Use Public Communication
The Global MPI
10 indicators, 3 dimensions: Health, Education, Living standards
Weights: Dimensions equally weighted, indicators equal withindimension
Identification of the poor: if deprivation score 1/3 or more

Global MPI
The Global MPI replaced the HPI in the Human DevelopmentReport in 2010
Continues to be reported in the Human Development Reports(slight modification since 2014)

Alkire-Foster Method The Global MPI Policy Use Public Communication
National MPIs: Tailor made for policy
Over 50 countries in the Multidimensional Poverty PeerNetwork (MPPN)
National MPIs reflect national priorities
Computed as official national statistics
Policy applications: target, coordinate, monitor
Comparable over time, groups, regions
![Page 22: The Global Multidimensional Poverty Index - Global... · Alkire-Foster Method The Global MPI Policy Use Public Communication The Global Multidimensional Poverty Index Natalie Na ri](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041200/5d3dc45a88c993f8068d01e8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Alkire-Foster Method The Global MPI Policy Use Public Communication
National MPIs: Policy applications
1 Complement monetary poverty statistics
2 Track poverty over time (official statistics)
3 Allocate resources by sector and by region
4 Target marginalized regions, groups, or households
5 Coordinate policy across sectors and subnational levels
6 Adjust policies by what works (measure to manage)
7 Evaluate policy – what has worked and why?
8 Transparent so all stakeholders engage (NGOs, privateSector, all parts of government)
