Multidimensional Overlapping Deprivation Analysis (MODA)
MODA is a policy tool that can be used to identify and quantify child deprivation, and identify those suffering multiple and overlapping deprivations. A key contributor to the equity agenda, this new approach analyses data from Demographic and Health (DHS) and Multiple Indicator Cluster (MICS) surveys and other sources to allow a disaggregated description of child poverty and deprivation. The Cross-Country MODA initiative entails analyzing a standard set of deprivation indicators across 50 countries and placing these results in the interactive CC-MODA website for analysis by the public. Similarly to CC-MODA, EU-MODA compares the living conditions of children across the European Union member states, using harmonized data from the EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC).
The National MODA (N-MODA) initiative entails tailoring the MODA approach to country specific definitions of deprivation and providing more in-depth analysis appropriate for the country context, including inter-relationships with monetary poverty. Support is being provided to N-MODA in Laos, Mali, Senegal, Tunisia, and Madagascar and will continue to be extended to other countries throughout 2014 and beyond.
