Getting to know your International Part 1 Boozer 1

I had to do the website of the childhood Poverty Research Policy Centre's http://www.childhoodpoverty.org/.
My research I looked into Identifying the "Bottom Billion:  Beyond National Averages Multidimensional poverty:  Enriching methadologies of measurement & policy.

Multidimensional poverty measures enable us to  identify who is poor, how poor they are, and what policies will most effectively eradicate their poverty.  This note has shown the importance of creating poverty measures that can be disaggreated in different ways:  by subnational region and even down to the individual level.

Geography of poverty is changing and increasingly large number of the world's poor are living in Middle Income Countries.  MPI is a direct measure of poverty and can be easily compared across subnational regions and indeed across individuals living indifferent countries.  MPI uses the most recent Demographic and Health Surveys( DHS).

The multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) is a measure of acute multidimensional poverty published in the UNDP Human Development Reports for over 100 developing countries since 2010.  Developed- Three Dimensions of Poverty  are Healthy, Education, Living Standard.
