Measuring Poverty and Wellbeing in Developing Countries United Nations University World Institute for Development Economics Research (UNU-WIDER) was established by the United Nations University as its first research and training centre and started work in Helsinki, Finland, in 1985 The mandate of the institute is to undertake applied research and policy analysis on structural changes affecting developing and transitional economies, to provide a forum for the advocacy of policies leading to robust, equitable, and environmentally sustainable growth, and to promote capacity strengthening and training in the field of economic and social policy-making Its work is carried out by staff researchers and visiting scholars in Helsinki and via networks of collaborating scholars and institutions around the world United Nations University World Institute for Development Economics Research (UNU-WIDER) Katajanokanlaituri 6B, 00160 Helsinki, Finland www.wider.unu.edu ‘This book makes accessible the recent advances in consumption and multidimensional poverty measurement The combination of literature review, computer code, and worked examples fill a major gap, making it possible for researchers in developing countries to estimate and analyse these metrics.’ John F Hoddinott, H.E Babcock Professor of Food and Nutrition Economics and Policy, Cornell University ‘This excellent volume combines theoretical discussion of the utility-consistent cost of basic needs poverty approach and first-order dominance multidimensional poverty analysis, empirical application, and practical tools in the form of user guides for estimation software essential reading for applied poverty researchers.’ Paul Shaffer, Department of International Development Studies, Trent University Measuring Poverty and Wellbeing in Developing Countries Edited by Channing Arndt and Finn Tarp A study prepared by the United Nations University World Institute for Development Economics Research (UNU-WIDER) Great Clarendon Street, Oxford, OX2 6DP, United Kingdom Oxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford It furthers the University’s objective of excellence in research, scholarship, and education by publishing worldwide Oxford is a registered trade mark of Oxford University Press in the UK and in certain other countries © United Nations University World Institute for Development Economics Research (UNU-WIDER) 2017 The moral rights of the authors have been asserted First Edition published in 2017 Impression: Some rights reserved This is an open access publication Except where otherwise noted, this work is distributed under the terms of a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-Share Alike 3.0 IGO licence (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 IGO), a copy of which is available at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/igo/ It is permitted to reuse, share and adapt this work, subject to the following terms: Attribution - appropriate credit is given to the original work, the copyright holder and creator, and any changes made to the work are properly indicated Non-Commercial - the work, or any adaptation of the work, may not be used, distributed or reproduced in any format, by any means, for commercial purposes Share-Alike - the work, or any adaptation of the work is distributed under the same licence terms as the original, with a URL link provided to the licence Enquiries concerning use outside the terms of the Creative Commons licence should be sent to the Rights Department, Oxford University Press, at the above address or to academic.permissions@oup.com Published in the United States of America by Oxford University Press 198 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10016, United States of America British Library Cataloguing in Publication Data Data available Library of Congress Control Number: 2016939850 ISBN 978–0–19–874480–1 (hbk.) 978–0–19–874481–8 (pbk.) Printed in Great Britain by Clays Ltd, St Ives plc Links to third party websites are provided by Oxford in good faith and for information only Oxford disclaims any responsibility for the materials contained in any third party website referenced in this work Foreword Despite decades of research and advances in data and methodologies, measuring poverty and reconciling this with patterns of economic growth is a complex issue This contentiousness, and the fact that poverty remains widespread and persistent in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and in other parts of the globe, charged UNU-WIDER to launch in 2011 a major research project— Reconciling Africa’s Growth, Poverty, and Inequality Trends: Growth and Poverty Project (GAPP)—to re-examine growth, poverty, and inequality trends in SSA and in other developing regions Another key motivation for the GAPP project was that poverty analysis in developing countries remains, to a surprisingly high degree, an activity undertaken by technical assistance personnel and consultants based in developed countries This book was designed to enhance the transparency, replicability, and comparability of existing practice; and in so doing, it also aims to significantly lower the barriers to entry to the conduct of rigorous poverty measurement and increase the participation of analysts from developing countries in their own poverty assessment The book focuses on the measurement of absolute consumption poverty as well as a specific approach to multidimensional analysis of binary poverty indicators The intent is not to give the impression that these two domains alone are sufficient for rigorous poverty assessment On the contrary, the editors highlight that this book is designed to serve as a companion to the recently published volume entitled Growth and Poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa (Arndt, McKay, and Tarp 2016) That volume emphasizes repeatedly the desirability of the application of multiple approaches across multiple datasets combined with a concerted effort to triangulate results in order to develop a reasonably complete and coherent picture of living standards and their evolution as one moves across space or through time I hereby sincerely express my appreciation and admiration of the academic and analytical skills of the entire project team that made this volume possible and the detailed methodological expertise and knowledge of the case countries brought out so clearly It is my hope that the tools developed in this volume will be adopted by scholars and analysts in Africa, other developing Foreword regions, and beyond, in taking charge of the poverty analyses of developments in their respective countries The research project—Reconciling Africa’s Growth, Poverty, and Inequality Trends—was generously supported by the governments of Denmark, Finland, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, with a special project contribution additionally provided by the Finnish government UNU-WIDER gratefully acknowledges this vital research funding Finn Tarp Helsinki, October 2016 vi Acknowledgements UNU-WIDER’s Growth and Poverty Project (GAPP) brought together a highly qualified team of more than forty researchers from Africa and beyond Without their dedication and professional competence, this book and its less technical sibling would not have been possible We wish to express our sincere appreciation of all of the high-level academic input, together with the copious goodwill and patience—which were much needed when doing the original groundwork followed by numerous revisions and updates of the individual chapters A series of intensive planning meetings, involving many of the authors, helped shape the project, with the results presented at several UNU-WIDER development conferences and on many other occasions across African countries We are grateful to all of those who offered critique and most helpful comments They include Oxford University Press’s economics commissioning editor, Adam Swallow, and his team as well as three anonymous referees Their efforts were essential in helping to sharpen our research questions and approaches to analysing one of the most intricate challenges facing the development profession, the growth renaissance in developing countries and its impact on poverty reduction UNU-WIDER and its dedicated staff provided steady support, including research assistance, which goes far beyond the normal call of duty Particular thanks go to Dominik Etienne for excellent programming; Anne Ruohonen for consistent project assistance; Lorraine Telfer-Taivainen for all of the careful editorial and publication support on finalizing the book manuscript, including the many contacts with Oxford University Press; and the group of copy editors for helping to put out the numerous UNU-WIDER working papers produced during the course of the project Channing Arndt and Finn Tarp Helsinki, October 2016 OUP CORRECTED PROOF – FINAL, 21/11/2016, SPi Contents List of Figures

Modify 030_FOD_base.bat and 030_FOD_base.gms FOD comparisons are conducted entirely in a linear program executed by GAMS The file 030_FOD_base.gms uses the dataset data_bs_100.csv and several include files to create required variables, equations, and parameters and save them to a base file A file for each processor, 031_process1.gms to 034_ process4.gms, then executes 036_spatial.inc and 038_temp.inc to conduct the FOD comparisons using the base file The user can execute the GAMS code in three ways First, FOD can be shelled directly from 000_master.do in Stata Second, the user can manually execute FOD in GAMS IDE Third, the user can execute FOD from a command window FOD involves a large number of comparisons that increases with the number of areas, survey years, population categories, and bootstrap iterations In order to reduce processing time, the FOD comparisons are divided by bootstrap iteration and executed using up to four processors It is possible to assign iterations to fewer processors depending on hardware capabilities The process time can be lengthy, even when taking advantage of four processors, and can vary from minutes to several hours B.3.5 FOD Tables 040_FOD_data, 042_Table_FODspat.do, 044_Table_FODtemp.do, 046_Table_Rank.do Depending on the number of processors utilized, GAMS saves up to four spatial (res_spat1.csv ) and four temporal (res_temp1.csv ) text files to the work directory The Stata do-file 040_FOD_data.do appends these files and creates two datasets (work/ res_spat.dta and work/res_temp.dta) From these datasets, three collections of tables are created that present temporal results, spatial results, and area rankings B.3.5.1 SPATIAL FOD TABLES The do-file 042_Table_FODspat.do creates spatial FOD tables for static and bootstrapped samples by area, category, and period FOD results are averaged across bootstrap iterations and are interpreted as the probability of domination A table is produced for static (Table B7) and bootstrap results (Table B8) Within each table, a blank cell indicates an indeterminate outcome between the row and column area In static tables, a ‘1’ indicates the row (column) area dominates (is dominated by) the column (row) area In bootstrap tables, values indicate the estimated probability that the row (column) area dominates (is dominated by) the column (row) area (probability is defined as total number of iterations where a domination outcome occurs divided by the total number of bootstrap iterations) The row (column) average yields the average number of times or the average probability that the row (column) area dominates (is dominated by) all other areas for the static and bootstrap cases, respectively Bootstrap sampling introduces variation to the results and therefore small values should be interpreted with caution For instance, Table B8 indicates that the nation 334 Table B7 Spatial FOD results (static), FOD_spat_1_1_static.csv Area National

Appendix B: User Guide to EFOD dominates Central with a probability of 0.05, which is likely too small to conclude that the nation outperforms Central B.3.5.2 TEMPORAL FOD TABLES The do-file 044_Table_FODtemp.do creates temporal and net temporal FOD tables for each category Temporal tables present static and bootstrap results for all year combinations for each area As in spatial analysis, bootstrapped FOD results are averaged across iterations and are interpreted as the probability of domination Temporal results are presented in two ways First, FOD_temp_$cat.csv presents static and bootstrap temporal outcomes for both later years dominating earlier years and earlier years dominating later years (Table B9) Second, FOD_net_temp_$cat.csv, presents net temporal domination, which measures the difference in the probabilities of later years dominating earlier years and earlier years dominating later years (Table B10) In the case of no welfare regression, net results are equivalent to the results for later years dominating earlier years In static temporal columns, a ‘1’ indicates that a given year dominated the other year, while a blank cell indicates the given year did not dominate the other year When both years have a blank entry, FOD was indeterminate In the net temporal table, ‘1’ indicates the later year dominated the earlier year; a blank cell indicates FOD was indeterminate; and, ‘À1’ indicates the earlier year dominated the later year There is no difference in the amount of information in the static temporal and the static net temporal tables, rather the difference lies in the presentation In the bootstrap temporal columns, entries indicate the probability that a given year dominates the other year A blank indicates the year did not dominate in any iteration and ‘1’ indicates that year dominated in every iteration When both years have a blank entry, FOD was indeterminate in all cases In the net temporal table, positive probabilities indicate that the later year dominated in more iterations than the earlier year, and negative probabilities indicate that the earlier year dominated in more iterations than the later year A net result of 0.2 could mean that the later year dominated in 20 per cent of iterations, the earlier year never dominated, and 80 per cent of the iterations were indeterminate Or, for example, it could mean that the later year dominated in 60 per cent of the iterations, and the earlier year dominated in 40 per cent of the iterations The exact scenario should be determined by the user Similarly, a blank cell could indicate that the outcome was indeterminate in every iteration or that each year dominated with the same frequency Thus, in cases with frequent backsliding, the full temporal table provides a more complete story than the net temporal table For example in Table B9, both 1996 dominates 1992 and 1992 dominates 1996 with positive probabilities in Northern and Southern Highlands In Table B10, with the exception of Northern and Southern Highlands, static and bootstrap net domination results are the same as those in Table B9 Net domination is different in the case of Northern and Southern Highlands because there are small probabilities of 1992 dominating 1996 B.3.5.3 AREA RANKINGS Area ranking tables use spatial bootstrap FOD results to compare areas based on the net probability of domination, which measures the average probability that an area 337 Table B9 Temporal FOD results, FOD_temp_1.csv Area National Rural Urban Central Eastern Lake Northern S_Highlands Southern Western

dominated by all other areas If the same areas are presented in the spatial and rank tables, the probability of net domination is equivalent to the spatial ranking row average minus the column average The do-file 046_Table_Rank.do produces separate tables for each category See Table B11 for an example of ranking outcomes Ranking results should be interpreted carefully Because bootstrapping results may vary from one execution of FOD to the next, rankings may be sensitive to small perturbations The difference in net domination scores is often insufficiently large to distinguish between differences in welfare outcomes and variability 339 Appendix B: User Guide to EFOD introduced through random bootstrapping For example, in Table B11, the difference in net domination between Lake and Southern in 2010 is extremely small However, even the difference between Northern and Lake may not be robust to bootstrap variation B.4 Alternative Specifications Thus far, the language in this description of the EFOD software has been geared towards welfare analysis of areas over time However, EFOD is flexible and can be applied to alternative specifications This section provides three examples of possible variations.6  To this point, the discussion has focused on analysis within a single country Alternatively, welfare comparisons can be made internationally With comparable indicators, areas could be specified as individual countries yielding spatial FOD comparisons between countries and temporal FOD comparisons for each country  Thus far, population groups have been discussed independently of each other However, FOD comparisons can be made between populations if the analyst defines the area parameters to specify population groups instead of areas See Chapter 14 where Mahrt and Masumbu specify FOD comparisons in Zambia by rural economic activity and urban housing cost areas One area variable would now classify the different population groups, similar to the category variable in the standard format If areas are still of interest, additional area variables can also be used to compare the population groups to aggregate areas such as urban/rural  In analysis focused on a single population group, say households, the category variable could be used to specify different sets of indicators In this context, the category variable would serve merely to signal each set of indicators rather than defining different populations For example, category one could include a set of health indicators, category two could contain a set of shelter indicators, and category three could contain a set of education indicators For a given set of indicators, spatial FOD comparisons would be made across areas and temporal analysis over time for each area FOD analysis within each indicator category would be conducted independently, thus highlighting the relative performance of areas for each set of indicators References Arndt C., R Distante, M A Hussain, L P
