Concluding remarks ICAS-V • Calculate household income indicators for statistics is a difficult task and international comparability with countries at different levels of development, as it is in Africa, is more complicate. Anyway statistical capability and data availability is growing in most African countries that, with an appropriate use of statistical tools, could regularly produce income indicators. Even if only aggregated data are available, a disaggregation at territorial level (for example regions) combined with partial micro-data at household/population level could be enough to produce concentration indicators on income.
