Description: The course will review concepts and definitions of key welfare indicators such as the consumption aggregate, poverty line and headcount rate, inequality, and shared prosperity measures. It will outline the key steps of household survey design and implementation, including sampling, survey instruments, and data quality monitoring. The training will also have a hands-on session using Stata, a statistical software for data management and analysis, to familiarize participants with its functionalities, including data importing, cleaning, and analysis. Through real-world examples, the course will cover how a consumption aggregate is calculated from food and non-food components of household expenditure, and the necessary imputations to capture rent, subsidized goods, and spatial differences in prices. Using these concepts, the course will enable participants to calculate welfare measures at national and sub-national levels. The training will also consist of interactive sessions among participants and trainers for focused country specific discussions on upcoming household surveys, labor force modules, and aspects of multi-dimensional poverty. The overarching goal would be to improve statistical capacity and create a basis for engagement on statistics that the Poverty team can build upon in future.
Target Audience: The training program on poverty measurement is specifically designed for officials and policymakers at the National Statistics Organizations (NSO), Ministries of Planning, Finance, Social and Labor Affairs, and related government think tanks of MENA countries. Countries where statistical capacity needs to be improved, and which are either in the early stages or in the process of implementing a household survey are especially encouraged to participate. This audience is targeted due to their roles in data management, analysis, and policy-making that require a deep understanding of household survey data and welfare measurement.

Description: Caribbean-wide, there is an urgent need to measure poverty to understand exactly who is affected and how. Only by doing so can the region effectively implement corrective policies. Many Caribbean countries struggle with weak statistical capacity and low data usage. According to the World Bank's Statistical Performance Indicator (SPI), which measures statistical capacity at the country level, the region ranks lowest in statistical performance compared to other regions, aligning more closely with low-income countries. With some exceptions, like Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, the most recent poverty estimates are between 6 and 8 years old. Furthermore, national poverty estimates are only available for the 2000s in more than a handful of countries. This data deficit hinders the effective tracking of Sustainable Development Goals related to poverty and inequality (SDG1: eradicating poverty in all its forms, and SDG 10: reducing inequality within and among countries) and the design of targeted poverty alleviation programs and policies. In the past, even if data to measure poverty was available, it had not been used sufficiently for purposes other than national poverty monitoring. A recent World Bank effort harmonized data from living conditions and household budget surveys in four Caribbean countries with existing microdata (Grenada, Jamaica, Saint Lucia, and Suriname) to produce internationally comparable poverty and equity estimates and allow the inclusion of these estimates into global monitoring of SDG1 and SDG 10. These estimates are now available on the World Bank’s Poverty and Inequality Platform. Harmonized welfare aggregates are essential for providing a consistent and comparable welfare measure across different populations or countries, allowing for global monitoring and benchmarking. This is especially valuable in regions like the Caribbean, where countries may have diverse economic contexts but share similar development objectives. Harmonized welfare aggregates facilitate cross-country analyses, inform policy decisions, and contribute to more effective regional cooperation and development strategies. Join us for another Ask WB Caribbean on April 30, where we will present the global estimates of poverty and inequality in the Caribbean and discuss committing to regular and comprehensive data collection on poverty and key socio-economic indicators, investing in the capacity of national statistical offices and policy analysis units, and promoting data transparency and accessibility.
Description: For this Joint UNICEF and Global Network Webinar on Benchmarking Progress on Child-Related SDGs Across Countries we welcomed João Pedro Azevedo from UNICEF. The SDG midpoint must be a turning point. As we approach the halfway mark of the Sustainable Development Agenda, it is imperative that we accelerate progress, particularly for children. UNICEF’s benchmarking approach helps countries set ambitious and realistic child-related SDG targets. This method sheds light on the effort that will be needed in the second half of the SDG period compared to past achievements within each country. Moreover, it offers insights into the future efforts required, drawing comparisons with similar countries. The webinar will feature a presentation describing the nature of the benchmarking exercise and the main results of a recent UNICEF report followed by a QA session.
Description: For this Global Network Webinar we were pleased to welcome Enrique Delamónica (UNICEF) and Oliver Fiala (Save the Children) who presented on Pro-poor public social spending and its concepts, data challenges, and measurement. SDG indicator 1.b.1, Pro-poor public social spending, measures the share of government spending that directly benefits the monetary poor in education, health and direct transfers. Measuring, analyzing and reporting on this indicator will help countries access the evidence needed to properly design, implement and finance policies to end poverty and achieve the other SDGs. This webinar presented details about the methodology behind the measurement and explained what data is required. It highlighted examples and best-practice cases, and pointed to existing tools and support available to produce estimates for this indicator.

Description: This event is part of the 55th Session of United Nations Statistical Commission (UNSC) side events and will focus on the UNSC’s “Data and indicators for the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” agenda item. The World Bank’s Development Data Group is organizing the event. Since 2013, the World Bank has monitored “shared prosperity” as one of its Twin Goals alongside “ending extreme poverty”. This goal aims to provide an “alternative to average income as the benchmark for progress” judging progress by comparing how much the growth is reaching the least well-off in society. The new corporate mission indicators attempt to better capture the growth of the least well off in society and track the number of countries with high inequality. The event will introduce two new indicators to measure shared prosperity and inequality. The World Bank proposed these new corporate mission indicators at the Annual Meetings in October 2023 to replace the current World Bank measure of shared prosperity (“boost growth in the bottom 40%”). The first measure is the prosperity gap, which captures the average factor by which individual incomes need to increase to attain a prosperity standard of $25 per day. It is a measure that gives increasingly greater weight to poorer people, providing statistical support to the notion of “leave no one behind”. The second measure is tracking the number of countries with high inequality, defined by the Gini index.

Description: Historically business statistics have focused very much in measuring the economic performance and competitiveness of businesses. Howeverbusinesses play a very important role toward sustainability and wellbeing. Task team on well-being and sustainability under the UN Committee of Experts on Business and Trade Statistics (UN CEBTS) identified a set of 17 reference indicators related to the measurement of the business sector’s impact on well-being and sustainability. These indicators were based on the review of the indicators of the Sustainable Development Goal indicators of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the core indicators for entity reporting on contribution towards implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals in order to provide a bridge between the information available at business level with business statistics and ultimately with relevant SDG indicators.This webinar series will focus on the set of indicators related to wellbeing and sustainability and is organized to (1) provide an overview of the importance of measuring impact of businesses on wellbeing and sustainability; (2) review data sources includingfor example non-financial reporting; and (3) share country experiences on challenges and opportunities in the compilation of these indicators. Participation to these webinars is free of charge.

Description: Advancing the World Bank’s twin goals of ending extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity requires knowing who the poor are and where they live. By reaching the most granular levels of geographic aggregation, policymakers can significantly improve outcomes for the world’s poorest. However, survey data alone is not sufficient for targeting at the lowest levels. This is where small area estimation becomes necessary. The publication of Guidelines to Small Area Estimation for Poverty Mapping caps more than two decades of poverty mapping experience at the World Bank since the launch of an innovative method combining census and survey data to study the spatial dimensions of poverty. The guidelines build upon the lessons learned from experience and seek to guide readers on the best methods available for a variety of data landscapes.

Description: The regional capacity building workshop will be held online from 2 to 5 August 2022 as part of a project to strengthen capacity to implement inequality assessments of civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) systems, which has been initiated by ESCAP and includes both in-country and regional level capacity strengthening activities. The regional capacity building workshop aims to provide guidance for countries to undertake inequality assessments and understand what the findings mean for policy purposes. The workshop will help participants understand why countries should undertake inequality assessments, review data for quality and assess its limitations, analyse results of an assessment, and how to present findings to policy makers so they can be used to improve civil registration of vital events among populations most left behind. The regional capacity building workshop will be a participatory hands-on workshop to build skills in analyzing data to assess inequalities in registration of births and deaths. Real-world data will be used and analyzed in order to provide greater depth and meaning to the skills gained. Concept note Agenda List of participants Group Photo Background A well-functioning civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) system helps ensure that every person has a legal identity, facilitating access to the benefits and protections of the State. It is also the preferred data source for many demographic statistics with numerous indicators of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) directly related to mortality and fertility while others rely on population data as the denominator. To know who is being left behind, the relevant disaggregated population data needs to be available. Many countries experience lower civil registration completeness rates among certain marginalized and hard-to-reach population groups or geographic areas. Despite these inequalities and their negative impact, this problem often remains a blind spot. The groups affected remain largely invisible if the matter is not specifically investigated. To ensure progress in registration is truly universal and fully inclusive, the Ministerial declaration to “Get Every One in The Picture” in Asia and the Pacific recognized the need to address disparities in civil registration completeness and coverage of these groups. Hence, the Regional Action Framework (RAF) on CRVS in Asia and the Pacific calls upon countries to assess any CRVS-related inequalities experienced by population subgroups. However, few countries have implemented inequality assessments, partly due to lack of clear guidelines and support to undertake such an assessment. Thus, ESCAP developed the inequality assessment project, which seeks to provide technical support and capacity strengthening to relevant national stakeholders to facilitate the implementation of CRVS inequality assessments using secondary data sources. The project is meant to build capacity for demographic analysis to undertake inequality assessments in the future as well as dialogue with policy-makers to ensure the results are used for policy formulation. , HOME - Project: Implementing Inequality Assessments Project countries: Bangladesh Fiji Lao PDR Pakistan Samoa Resources Regional Events

Description: This study examines gender inequality in the context of structural transformation and rebalancing in China. We document declining women’s relative wages and labor force participation in China during the last two decades, despite rapid growth and expansion of the service sector. Using household data, we provide evidence consistent with a U-shaped relationship between economic development and women’s labor market outcomes. Using a model of structural transformation, we show that labor market barriers for women have increased over time. Model counterfactuals suggest that removing these barriers and increasing service sector productivity can boost both gender equality and economic growth in China.

Description: The webinar was held on 8 February 2021, 12:00-13:30h (Bangkok time, GMT+7). The meeting record is available here. A well-functioning CRVS system helps to ensure that every person has a legal identity, facilitating access to the benefits and protections of the State. Despite national and universal efforts to “get every one in the picture”, disparities in coverage of hard-to-reach and marginalized populations remain. Therefore, the Regional Action Framework on CRVS goes beyond the measurement of civil registration completeness at the national level and includes inequality assessment as part of the essential tools for achieving universal and well-functioning civil registration systems. To answer countries' request for guidance on how to achieve it, ESCAP organized in collaboration with international and national organizations a series of webinars and Expert Group Meetings (EGM) with the overarching theme, “Inequalities in CRVS: Let’s really get every one in the picture!”. This second webinar focused on using secondary sources to assess inequality in civil registration with speakers sharing their knowledge and experiences of using various data sources for assessing inequalities in civil registration. It explored questions such as: What are the advantages and disadvantages of the different data sources for assessing inequality in civil registration? What are the criteria for determining which data sources are the most appropriate, when are they appropriate to be used, which assumptions are made and do those assumptions hold? How may these data sources be improved to be a better resource for assessing inequality? The meeting was followed by the EGM 2 to reflect on the discussions of the webinar.
