Uzbekistan's fight against poverty | UNDP Uzbekistan's MPI Pilot & Transformative Plans

Anas Qarman, a representative from the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), discusses the Multi-Dimensional Poverty Index (MPI) pilot program in Uzbekistan. The MPI measures poverty beyond just income, taking into account access to education, food security, and other basic rights. The pilot study found that 18.4% of the adult population in Uzbekistan, approximately 4.2 million people, were identified as multi-dimensionally poor. There were also regional disparities, with certain areas exhibiting a larger proportion of multidimensionally poor adults. The challenges faced during the pilot included defining poverty comprehensively and establishing accurate indicators. The next steps involve integrating the MPI into policy-making and using the findings to target interventions and allocate resources effectively.
