The authors use the multidimensional poverty index (MPI), which captures several welfare dimensions - monetary poverty, education, and access to basic infrastructure - to compare the extent to which different populations in Djibouti are deprived: rural versus urban, households where the head is educated versus not, households where the head is employed versus not, among other characteristics. Overall, about 28 percent of the population is multidimensionally poor and wide disparities exist across geographic locations. Moreover, people living in a household headed by a person who is educated and employed in the formal private sector are least likely to be multidimensionally poor. 2020-08-10T14:44:44Z 2020-08-10T14:44:44Z 2020-07 Brief http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/272691596006234817/The-Multi-Dimensional-Nature-of-Poverty-in-Djibouti http://hdl.handle.net/10986/34299 English Poverty and Equity Notes;No. 30 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Brief Middle East and North Africa Djibouti
