OPHI’s new book on Multidimensional Poverty Measurement & Analysis has now been published by Oxford University Press. The book provides an in-depth account of multidimensional poverty comparison methodologies, with a particular focus on the Alkire-Foster Method. From 10-19 June, the authors of the book – Sabina Alkire, James Foster, Suman Seth, Maria Emma Santos, José  Manuel Roche and Paola Ballon – will be giving presentations at universities in Germany  (Gottingen, Dortmund, Heidelberg ) and Belgium (CORE), followed by the London School of Economics and universities of Leeds, Sussex and Essex in the UK.

The book will be officially launched at a special event at the University of Oxford on 22 June 2015, which combines the launch of the book and the launch of the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) 2015.
