Beyond GDP: What multidimensional measures of poverty and well-being add

Momentum is gathering on the implementation of commitments made by the international community to build a measurement framework that respects and accurately reflects the ambitions of sustainable development, going beyond Gross Domestic Product (GDP) - “Beyond GDP”.

In this seminar, Sabina Alkire and James Foster will propose eight criteria by which to assess some component indicators in the Beyond GDP framework. Applying these criteria, their paper on this topic proposes that the Beyond GDP framework includes a small suite of multidimensional measures based on the counting tradition for measuring acute poverty, moderate poverty, and well-being.
