The World Banks PIP data is a large collection of household surveys where steps have been taken by the World Bank to harmonize definitions and methods across countries and over time. Please consult our full legal disclaimer. Assessing the Impact of the 2017 PPPs on the International Poverty Line and Global Poverty. for some background information the following literature is very usefull: James Foster; Joel Greer; Erik Thorbecke The FosterGreerThorbecke (FGT) Official definitions of poverty in different countries are often not directly comparable due to the different ways poverty is measured. "FAQs: Global Poverty Line Updated. A theoretical value of zero implies that no one in the population is below the poverty line. P At a global level, the share of the poor is 60 percent higher when education and basic infrastructure are added alongside monetary poverty from 8.9 percent living below $2.15 per day to 14.7 percent deprived in at least one of the three dimensions. (See Table1). https://doi.org/10.1007/s10888-021-09510-w. povdeco estimates three poverty indices from the Foster, Greer and Thorbecke (1984) class, FGT (a), plus related statistics (such as mean income amongst the poor). Persons in family/household. UNDP (United Nations Development Programme). For families/households with more than 8 persons, add $4,720 for each additional person. The multidimensional poverty measure headcount indicates the share of the population in each region defined as multidimensionally poor. The World Banks measure takes inspiration and guidance from other prominent global multidimensional measures, particularly theMultidimensional Poverty Index (MPI)developed by UNDP and Oxford University but differs from them in one important aspect: it includes monetary poverty less than $2.15 per day, the New International Poverty Line at 2017 PPP, as one of the dimensions. The poverty gap reflects the intensity of poverty in a nation, showing the averageshortfallof the total population from thepoverty line. To take this into account and make a fair comparison of their living standards, the statisticians that produce these figures estimate the monetary value of their home production and add it to their income/expenditure. There are many challenges to making such adjustments and they are far from perfect. We calculated an alternative harmonized figure for the US national poverty using the same method as Jolliffe et al. WebThe Three FGT Measures Derived from: Headcount (=0): Poverty Gap (=1) Poverty Severity (=2) Recipe for Calculating the FGT 1. How much does reducing inequality matter for global poverty?. But in a world where price differences across countries and over time are large it is important to attempt to account for these differences as well as possible, and this is what these adjustments do.You can read more in our article From $1.90 to $2.15 a day: the updated International Poverty Line. Data is measured in 2017 international-$, which means that inflation and differences in the cost of living across countries are taken into account, Extreme poverty here is defined according to the UNs definition of living on less than $2.15 a day an. The total transfer required to bring all poor people up to the poverty line is simply the sum of all the poverty gaps in a population (30+20+10+0+0), or the multiplication of the country's poverty gap index by both the poverty line and the total number of individuals in the country (PGIP l N). {\displaystyle H} The data for the MPM is derived from harmonized surveys in the World Banks Global Monitoring Database. All data is measured in international-$ which means that inflation and differences in purchasing power across countries are taken into account. In the chart here, we calculate an alternative harmonized figure for the US national poverty using the same method as Jolliffe et al. F 47% of the world lives on less than $6.85 per day a poverty line broadly reflective of the lines adopted in upper-middle income countries. $46,630. N i i G P Nz= = This table shows how the poverty gap is computed, divided by the poverty line, and averaged to Divide by (multiply by 1 over) Nz: FGT: An Example Will you take two minutes to complete a brief survey that will help us to improve our website? If you multiply a country's poverty gap index by both the poverty line and the total number of individuals in the country, you get the total amount of money needed Our understanding of the extent of poverty and how it is changing depends on which definition we have in mind. 84% live on less than $30 per day a poverty line broadly reflective of the lines adopted in high income countries. The World Bank has since updated its methods, and now measures incomes in 2017 international-$. The data cover as much as 89 percent of the population in Europe & Central Asia and as little as 22 percent of the population in South Asia. This means that, at the bottom end of the distribution, income and consumption can give quite different pictures about a persons welfare. 0000001663 00000 n The latest global estimates of extreme poverty are for 2019. To calculate the percentage of a goal attained, you can use a simple formula that divides the actual by the goal amount, with the result formatted using the percentage number format. In other words, the index can be used as an aggregate poverty measure, as well as be decomposed for various sub-groups of the population, such as by region, employment sector, education level, gender, age, or ethnic group. Non-market sources of income, including food grown by subsistence farmers for their own consumption, are taken into account. Thank you for agreeing to provide feedback on the new version of worldbank.org; your response will help us to improve our website. Because the monetary dimension is measured using only one indicator, anyone who is income poor is automatically also poor under the multidimensional poverty measure. On this page you can find all our data, visualizations and writing relating to poverty. Not all countries have current and comparable data on all the above dimensions, making it challenging to construct a multidimensional poverty measure, especially at the global level. 0000024362 00000 n By comparing the monetary poverty dimension with indicators from other dimensions, it is possible to form a picture of how many multidimensionally poor are not captured by monetary poverty, as well as which indicator deprivations most affect well-being in the different regions (See Table 2). Additional information on the latest country data can be found in see Castaneda et al., 2022. WebAnother way of showing changes in poverty over time is to calculate the percentage of households below the poverty line at the start and end of the program and show it in a bar chart. Earlier estimates were also published in Lakner, C., Mahler, D.G., Negre, M. et al. The coverage rule applied to the estimates is identical to that used for the World Banks global monetary poverty measures (e.g., see annex 1A of World Bank, 2020). The FosterGreerThorbecke metric is the general form of the PGI. Such lines are most commonly used in rich countries, and are the main way poverty is measured by the OECD and the European Union.More recently, relative poverty measures have come to be applied in a global context. 1. Data coverage differs across regions. When citing this topic page, please also cite the underlying data sources. In this analysis, a basket of goods and This data explorer is collated and adapted from the World Banks Poverty and Inequality Platform (PIP). The poorest in the world are often undernourished, without access to basic services such as electricity and safe drinking water; they have less access to education, and suffer from much poorer health. Individuals are considered multidimensionally deprived if they fall short of the threshold in at least one dimension or in a combination of indicators equivalent in weight to a full dimension. A countrys MPM is at least as high as or higher than monetary poverty, reflecting the additional role of nonmonetary dimensions to poverty and their importance to general well-being. To help communicate the latter, the World Bank produces a variable that groups surveys within each individual country into more comparable spells. {\displaystyle y_{j}} There is no global survey of incomes. Because there is no global survey of incomes, researchers need to rely on available national surveys. Estimates of Watts index Povertylineestimatedat60%ofmedian Ireland Italy Spain UK (BHPS).06 .08 .1 .12 Poverty measure Watts. Ongoing deliberative participatory exercises that elicit the values and perspectives of stakeholders. Take the sum () of gaps across all q poor households (add em up): 4. The International Poverty Line used by the World Bank and the UN to define extreme poverty was accordingly updated from $1.90 a day (in 2011 prices) to $2.15 (in 2017 prices).In order to match up to the projected figures, the extreme poverty estimates shown here relate to a previous release of the World Banks data using data expressed in 2011 prices, which vary slightly from the latest data in 2017 prices. (2022), based on economic growth forecasts. The projections are generally made on the assumption that incomes or expenditure grow in line with the growth rates observed in national accounts data. For example, countries account for the size of households in different ways in their poverty measures.The poverty lines shown here are an approximation of national definitions, harmonized to allow for comparisons across countries. The poverty gap index is an important measure beyond the commonly used head count ratio. !0A"bAIzTbejCj^oJM$>:Ry (#r[Sa82%J>n0IG XllGG%%R B{~-e,lnL[OGaS}#-rNPAl$ OUNh2Re$8 9H l>YoJ*JMP.v*}`*j+Y5I?KWM1PersB !E=559ZoV(`iL0j,xkTKwa#]rT"e!QWDIJc_\67veW!>E|FiY5},_$&OxgeU ;+[2th'csn>lGH2ytt5e 8yjzz7p}6|+%'bN4dTr[~m; U?PLPJYo~[l,97dQ{Y?I(NJQTapIGs3K-WvT(D;!j%09(_4b{ +iG>kH;1_iQl-Wz=en,5:SGRyiS+IL5fUKzD:h` 8^hwm7T8N 9:qVy@Fm+uH]fe%.f+aL"vD /iT `2FM]oP39CPq#wTwe [2][15] It is calculated as follows: where, (2022), but based instead on the official 2019 poverty rate as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau. This is on purchasing power parity basis, international dollar adjusted for inflation to 2005; To convert to $ per day income, divide by 30.4; for annual income multiply by 12. United States Census Bureau. This step establishes the first cutoff in the methodology. In September 2022, the World Bank changed from using 2011 international-$ to 2017 international-$ in the measurement of global poverty. OPHIs Working Papers on weighting dimensions of wellbeing, OPHIs workshop on setting weights in multidimensional measures. In practice, it may be useful to calculate the measure for several values of k. Robustness checks can be performed across all values of k. In the example in Table 1, k is set to 4 and the persons whose data are shaded are identified as poor. Earlier estimates were also published in Lakner, C., Mahler, D.G., Negre, M. et al. The two concepts are closely related: the income of a household equals their consumption plus any saving, or minus any borrowing or spending out of savings.One important difference is that, while zero consumption is not a feasible value people with zero consumption would starve a zero income is a feasible value. keeping constant the value of the 2005 poverty line), recent increases in income poverty are much higher than suggested by relative income poverty. Available from the OECD here. These lines are calculated as the international dollar figure which, in the World Banks Poverty and Inequality Platform (PIP) data, yields the same poverty rate as the officially reported rate using national definitions in a particular year (around 2017). 1 0 obj Along with data for individual countries, the World Bank also provides global and regional poverty estimates which aggregate over the available country data. Global poverty rates at these higher lines remain very high: Economic growth over the past two centuries has allowed the majority of the world to leave extreme poverty behind. The Excel files contains a worked example of the calculation of the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) with Excel formulas. If you multiply a country's poverty gap index by both the poverty line and the total number of individuals in the country you get the total amount of money needed to bring the poor in the population out of extreme poverty and up to the poverty line, assuming perfect targeting of transfers. A theoretical value of 100% implies that everyone in the population has zero income. The poverty gap in this example would be $7,750. The process is repeated for all indicators for all other dimensions. ND indicates that the person is not deprived (in other words, his or her value in that indicatoris equal or higher than the cutoff), and D indicates that the person is deprived (his or her value is lower than the cutoff). The value of relative poverty lines instead rises and falls as average incomes change within a given country. Dividing by the number of days (29 x 365) gives the average daily fall: (2.00 billion 0.648 billion)/(29 x 365) = 128,000. This data is for rural population of China. To help communicate the latter, the World Bank produces a variable that groups surveys within each individual country into more comparable spells. {\displaystyle P_{1}} b.

[3], The poverty gap index sometimes referred to as poverty gap ratio or pg index is defined as average of the ratio of the poverty gap to the poverty line. The poverty gap index is then. In such a case, anaverage increase of $25 per individual, per year, would eliminate extreme poverty. You can read more about how these comparable national poverty lines are calculated in this footnote.1. To the three poverty lines adopted officially by the World Bank $2.15, $3.65 and $6.85 we add a higher line broadly consistent with definitions of poverty in high income countries. Indeed, almost four out of 10 (39 percent) multidimensionally poor persons are not captured by monetary poverty because they are deprived in nonmonetary dimensions alone. There are many challenges to making such adjustments and they are far from perfect. [1], The poverty gap index is an improvement over the poverty measure head count ratio which simply counts all the people below a poverty line, in a given population, and considers them equally poor. The multidimensional headcount is a useful measure, but it does not increase if poor people become more deprived, nor can it be broken down by dimension to analyze how poverty differs among groups. However, any aggregation of indicators into a single index invariably involves a decision on how each of the indicators is to be weighted. 0000069133 00000 n {\displaystyle W} It is defined as having the same purchasing power as one US-$ in a given base year. A better measure would focus on capabilities and consequent consumption side of impoverished households. How do we know the history of extreme poverty?

Shading indicates people who are poor (defined as deprived in at least four indicators). But only very recently has poverty fallen at higher poverty lines. In our example, HA = 2/4 5/6 = 5/12. For example, suppose a country has 10 million individuals, a poverty line of $500 per year and a poverty gap index of 5%. On these preliminary estimates, the global extreme poverty rate rose to around 9% in 2020.11. Over the past two centuries the world made good progress against extreme poverty. Angus Deaton (Deaton, 2010) provides a good discussion of the difficulties involved in price adjustments and how this relates to global poverty measurement. Over the past generation extreme poverty declined hugely. The choice of dimensions is important but less haphazard than people assume.
