One alternative is to prepare an exclusion index that considers the dimensions that are most relevant for the population (having a trade or profession, own income, higher education and property/ house/land) and use the importance that people attach to each of these dimensions as a weighting criterion.33 Another possibility is to construct a subjective exclusion indicator based on perceptions of the activities people need to engage in to avoid being excluded. For further details see tables I.A-S and l. Nonetheless, this requires better definition of the categories, particularly since people do not necessarily see inclusion or exclusion as dichotomous.
