This dataset contains detailed Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) data at the sub-national level for 71 countries.The Global MPI reflects the combined simultaneous disadvantages poor people experience across different areas of their lives, including education, health and living standards. If people are deprived in at least one-third of ten weighted indicators, they are identified as multi-dimensionally poor.
