  1. THE 3rd ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF PEP NETWORK Dakar (Senegal) - June 2004 _____________________________________________ Can CBPM become a national system ? Vu Tuan Anh Socio-Economic Development Centre Hanoi, Vietnam

  2. Tasks of a poverty monitoring system • To provide a clear understanding of the characteristics of the poor, causes of their poverty, and where they are located. • To monitor the progress and impacts of poverty alleviation policies, programmes, measures and projects.  PMS collects, analyses, disseminates poverty-related data to policy makers, researchers, communities.

  3. Existing popular PMSs (1) Household living standards survey • quantitative income - consumption survey • both census / sampled survey • national scope • centralised activities (2) Participatory poverty assessment • qualitative survey • sampled survey • local scope • decentralised activities

  4. Disadvantages of existing PMSs • Heavy surveys • Too costly to be replicated frequently. • Different coverage and reference periods of surveys => impossible to get a comprehensive profile of the different social groups at a specific point in time. • Sampling designs do not usually correspond to the geographical disaggregation needed for policy planning. do not provide regular and up-to-date picture of the poverty status of vulnerable groups.

  5. CBPMS • Frequently conducted • Simple indicators (focussing on basic needs) • Participation of the communities • Different local scopes • Decentralised and flexible activities   Low-cost. Providing frequent and comprehensive information on poverty in localities.  Easy-to-sustain.  Enhancing local capacity.      

  6. However... Concerns about CBPMS • Does the set of simple indicators satisfy the needs of policy-making process? • Does the participatory data collection meet the quality requirements? • Can local communities properly process and analyse the collected data? • Can results of CBPMS be aggregated and integrated in a national database? • Can CBPMS extent scope and become a national system?

  7. Decentralisation

  8. CBPMS at localities

  9. A national database of CBPMS

  10. Implementation of CBPMS in Vietnam (1) Set of indicators: Basic needs + Income (2) Types of household surveys: Census (1st year) + Sampling (next 4 years) (3) Data gathering: Local surveyors + External supervisors (4) Data processing: Computerisation + Ready software

  11. Buiding a national CBPMS (1) Steps in our top-down approach: Implementing CBPMS in a national system of poverty observatories 2002: testing CBPMS in 20 communes, 12 provinces. Implementing CBPMS in provinces 2003-04: testing CBPMS in 2 provinces: + Hatay with 30 communes + Yenbai with 10 communes

  12. Buiding a national CBPMS  Encouraging other provinces to build provincial poverty observatory systems.  Integrating data of provincial poverty observatories in a national system => Provincial observatories become national.

  13. Buiding a national CBPMS

  14. Buiding a national CBPMS

  15. Buiding a national CBPMS

  16. Buiding a national CBPMS (2) Standardisation and unification of indicators at national and local levels: Set of main indicators (for all levels)+ Set of specific indicators (different for localities and administrative levels) (3) Institutionalizing CBPM and searching financial support. (4) Integrating CBPMS with LSS and other national surveys.
