According to 2 studies that applied a multidimensional poverty measure to the US using the #AlkireFosterMethod, in addition to the 40 million Americans who are income-poor, another 5%, or 16 million people, are multidimensionally poor but not income-poor. https://t.co/gA642KXFDn
"In terms of the change in the acceptance of the MPI, OPHI singlehandedly got the concept accepted; not only the concept, but the Alkire-Foster methodology is now very widely accepted as an established methodology."-Frances Stewart @Some0172 of @ODID_QEH #AlkireFosterMethod
In a special issue of Dimensions, James Foster explains that the #AlkireFosterMethod translates a group's underlying values into a measurement tool that allows them to monitor their own level of #poverty, ultimately reducing poverty as they have defined it https://t.co/jnuhyRcxqA
