| Summary: | This note discusses the evolution of the
MPI in Colombia since 2010 and describes some of the
challenges associated with the spatial heterogeneity of
multidimensional poverty across urban and rural areas, and
the relationship between life cycle and the evolution of the
MPI over time. Also, this note opens a discussion that has
not been yet addressed by the literature on how to update
the indicators in the MPI once these are no longer capturing
significant deprivations. |
