To   identify   and  measure   the   incidence  and   intensity  of  the  main  non-­‐monetary  deprivations   affect   living   conditions   of  the  panamanians,  and  use   it  as  a  public  policy  tool  to  redirect  actions  in  order  to  effectively   reducee   poverty   in   all   its  dimensions.

Panama’s  PMI  has  5  dimensions  and  17  indicators.    With  the  MPI  we  can  determine  which  deprivations  affect  people  the  most.

When  a  household  is  deprived  in  at  5,  6  or  more  of  the  weighted  indicators,  it  is  considered  multidimensionally  poor.

INTENSITY:

HOW  MANY  PEOPLE  ARE  POOR?(INCIDENCE)

43.5%  On  average,  poor  people  in  Panama  are  deprived  on  8  or  more  indicators  simultaneously,  depending  on  the  dimension.  

19.1%                                    of  Panamanians  live  in  multidimensionally  poor  conditions,  which  means  that  2  out  of  10  panamanians  are  deprived  either  on  their  education,  health,  housing,  job,  or  

other  dimensions  of  their  well  being.
