The Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) was developed by Oxford University’s Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI) with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). It captures interlinked poverty deprivations across areas such as education, health, and living standards. Unlike traditional income-based measures, the MPI recognizes that wellbeing and poverty are multidimensional and affect individuals and communities in complex ways that require comprehensive measurement.
