  1. National Multidimensional Poverty Index (NMPI) Multidimensional Poverty Analysis In Collaboration with OPHI and DCS Presented by P.M.P.Anura Kumara Additional Director General Department of Census & Statistics Sri Lanka

  2. Alkire and Foster Method An MPI reflects the multiple deprivations each person faces at the same time. The MPI dashboard’s key statistics include: • Incidence of poverty: The percentage of multi dimensionally poor people. •Intensity of poverty: The average proportion of deprivations poor people face at once. • Composition of poverty: The percentage of people who are poor and deprived in each indicator.

  3. 13 Indicators Dimensions and Indicators of National Multidimensional Index Sri Lanka 4 Dimensions

  4. Dimensions (4), Indicators(13), and Weights of National MPI

  5. Distribution of general and multidimensionally poor population by sector-2016 The poor population share is higher than the general population share in estate sector. In rural sector also share of poor population is slightly higher that that of general population.

  6. Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) by district Variation across districts

  7. Headcount Ratios by indicator -2016 • Indoor pollution and deprivation of eligible women employment shows the higher headcount index than other indicators • The third highest headcount has reported from tobacco consumption. The percentage share of population who are multidimensionally poor and deprived in each dimensions.

  8. Contributionof each Dimension to National MPI Deprivation of Health, Women Empowerment and Living Standard more or less equally contribute to National MPI and lowest contribution reported from Education

  9. Percentage Contribution of Each Indicator to national MPI, 2016 The highest contribution is given by women employment and second highest is tobacco consumption and third highest is indoor pollution. The lowest contribution is given by sanitation.

  10. Percentage Contribution of Each Indicator to national MPI by sector - 2016 • The graph depicts that in urban and rural deprivation of women employment contribute to poverty is higher than other indicators • In estate sector the highest contributing indicator for poverty is year of schooling. • The second highest contribution to poverty in all three sectors is deprivation of tobacco consumption.

  11. Percentage Contribution of Each Indicator to national MPI by District 2016 Women Employment (20.7%) • The contribution of year of schooling is high in the districts Puttalama(14.1%), Mannar (13.6%),Trincomalee (13.0%), Nuwaraeliya(12.9 School items 11.5% • The highest contribution to overall poverty by school items is reported from Batticaloa district (11.5%). Tobacco Consumption (18.6%) Year of schooling 14.1% • The highest contribution of tobacco consumption is reported from Hambantota (18.6%) followed by Rathnapura (18.1%), Gall (17.3%), Kalutara (16.9%) • The highest contribution of women employment has been reported from Hambanthota(20.7%) Indicator contribution is not alike by districts

  12. Consumption poverty Headcount vs. Multidimensional poverty Headcount Variation across districts • The poorest district by multidimensional poverty is not much monetary poor • Monetary poverty and Multidimensional poverty do not trend together

  13. NATIONAL HEADCOUNT FOR CHILDREN AND OTHER ADULT POPULATION Multidimensional poverty headcount (H) by age groups-2016

  14. Conclusions • The highest deprived indicator is indoor pollution ,Secondly highest is female not work mainly due to difficult to find a job and need to be home for the children and the third highest deprived indicator is tobacco consumption. • NMPI is much higher in estate sector than that of other two sectors in Sri Lanka. It more than twice than rural sector. • The highest National Multidimensional Poverty indices are reported from Nuwara-Eliya district and the lowest has been reported from Colombo district. • The health, women empowerment and living standard dimensions more or less equally contribute to overall poverty and contribution of education to overall poverty is comparatively less than other dimensions.

  15. Cont.……. • Among the indicators the highest contribution is given by women employment and second highest is tobacco consumption and third highest is indoor pollution. • The contribution of year of schooling is high in Puttalamadistict (14.1%), • The highest contribution to overall poverty by school items is reported from Batticaloa district (11.5%). • The highest contribution of tobacco consumption is reported from Hambantota (18.6%) • Monetary poverty and Multidimensional poverty do not trend together
