The eradication of poverty, which was
the first of the millennium development goals (MDG)
established by the United Nations and followed by the
sustainable development goals (SDG), requires knowing where
the poor are located. Traditionally, household surveys are
considered the best source of information on the living
standards of a country’s population. Data from these surveys
typically provide a sufficiently accurate direct estimate of
household expenditures or income and thus estimates of
poverty at the national level and larger international
regions. However, when one starts to disaggregate data by
local areas or population subgroups, the quality of these
direct estimates diminishes. Consequently, national
statistical offices (NSOs) cannot provide reliable wellbeing
statistical figures at a local level. For example, the
module of socioeconomic conditions of the Mexican national
survey of household income and expenditure (ENIGH) is
designed to produce estimates of poverty and inequality at
the national level and for the 32 federate entities (31
states and Mexico City) with disaggregation by rural and
urban zones, every two years, but there is a mandate to
produce estimates by municipality every five years, and the
ENIGH alone cannot provide estimates for all municipalities
with adequate precision. This makes monitoring progress
toward the sustainable development goals more difficult. |
