This table contains subnational multidimensional poverty data from the data tables published by the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI), University of Oxford. The global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) measures multidimensional poverty in over 100 developing countries, using internationally comparable datasets and is updated annually. The measure captures the severe deprivations that each person faces at the same time using information from 10 indicators, which are grouped into three equally weighted dimensions: health, education, and living standards. The global MPI methodology is detailed in Alkire, Kanagaratnam & Suppa (2022).
South Sudan Resilience Capacity Index. The dataset combines Food Security, Health, Education, Protection and other sectors to determine a level of vulnerability.
Contains data from the World Bank's data portal. There is also a consolidated country dataset on HDX.
For countries with an active poverty monitoring program, the World Bank—in collaboration with national institutions, other development agencies, and civil society—regularly conducts analytical work to assess the extent and causes of poverty and inequality, examine the impact of growth and public policy, and review household survey data and measurement methods. Data here includes poverty and inequality measures generated from analytical reports, from national poverty monitoring programs, and from the World Bank’s Development Research Group which has been producing internationally comparable and global poverty estimates and lines since 1990.

Nearly 7 of 10 Somalis live in poverty, making Somalia one of the poorest countries in Sub-saharan Africa. About 69 percent of the population lived in poverty in 2017. Somalia has the sixth highest poverty rate in the region, only after the Democratic Republic of Congo, Central African Republic, Madagascar, Burundi and South Sudan. Poverty incidence is lower in other urban areas, excluding Mogadishu, compared to nomadic households, IDPs in settlements, and those in rural areas and Mogadishu. Nearly half of the population is not even able to meet the average consumption of food items, confirming the dire living standards of most Somalis.
Overview
The dataset contains harmonized indicators created from high-frequency phone surveys collected by the World Bank and partners. The surveys capture the socioeconomic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on households and individuals from all developing regions. Data are available for over 90 indicators in 14 topic areas, including education, food security, income, safety nets, and others. For more information, please refer to our Technical Note and Data Dictionary.
Unit of Measure
Percentages.
Aggregation Method:
The data is aggregated by Urban/Rural/National and Industry Sector
Disclaimer:
This harmonized dataset is an ongoing collation and harmonization of COVID-19 high-frequency phone survey (HFPS) data. Harmonization involves redefining indicators and categories so that they are comparable across countries. As a result, even if the names and definitions of indicators appear similar, numbers in this global database might differ slightly from those of each country's publications or dashboard. If you see large discrepancies or other issues, please reach out.
Version Notes:
COVID-19 Harmonized Household Data Feb 18 • Temporarily suppressed select income, labor, and government assistance indicators collected after wave 2 surveys for harmonization review • Added need for, and access to medical care in multiple countries • Temporarily suppressed select income, labor and government assistance indicators collected after wave 2 surveys for harmonization review
Funding Name, Abbreviation, Role:
The project received support from the Trust Fund for Statistical Capacity Building III (TFSCB-III). TFSCB-III is funded by the United Kingdom’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Ireland, and the Governments of Canada and Korea.
Other Acknowledgments:
This dashboard was created by the Data for Goals (D4G) team and the Regional High-Frequency Phone Survey (HFPS) Focal Points in the EFI Poverty and Equity Global Practice (POV GP), under the guidance of POV GP management, using data collected under the World Bank-wide COVID-19 HFPS initiative.

Based on Republic Act 8425, otherwise known as Social Reform and Poverty Alleviation Act, dated 11 December 1997, the poor refers to individuals and families whose income fall below the poverty threshold as defined by the government and/or those that cannot afford in a sustained manner to provide their basic needs of food, health, education, housing and other amenities of life. It may be estimated in terms
of percentages (poverty incidence) and total number of poor families (magnitude of poor families). Also, this dataset has been generated by combining Philippine Standard Geographic Codes (PSGC) and poverty estimates from Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA).
