In this note we present the Spatial Fairness Index (SFI), which provides a summary indicator of the inequality in projects’ investments with respect to a fair allocation benchmark.

We highlight some of the SFI’s main uses: to compare across sectors, projects and time, as well as to inform project design. 2020-01-14T16:25:36Z 2020-01-14T16:25:36Z 2020-01 Brief http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/198291578515222882/Spatial-Fairness-Index-Measuring-How-Projects-Reach-their-Intended-Beneficiaries http://hdl.handle.net/10986/33172 English Poverty and Equity Note,No. 17; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Brief South Asia Bangladesh
