The new method informed the construction of the global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) (Alkire & Santos, 2010) as well as the Inequality Adjusted Human Development Index (Alkire & Foster, 2010) used in the 2010 Human Development Report (UNDP, 2010). The Alkire-Foster methodology has also been applied to multiple national studies of multidimensional poverty in the developing world (Alkire & Seth, 2013, Salazar, Diaz, & Pinzon, 2013). Since the broader list of material deprivation indicators was only available in 2009, the trend analysis had to rely on the more limited set of indicators that are collected in every wave of the EU-SILC.
