Resumen: Multidimensional poverty data and measurement are key allies in confronting the threat posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Formulating an effective response to this global crisis requires an understanding of the overlapping deprivations faced by people around the world, deprivations that can result in increased vulnerability to COVID-19. The global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) provides clear, immediate evidence of these interlinked deprivations, making interventions more effective, high impact, and durable. This briefing uses data from the global MPI database for 2020 and covers 103 countries and 5.8 billion people to show at a glance critical facts for the COVID-19 response.
