本报告根据小区域估算提出了地区一级的贫困指数，并利用结果绘制了该国的贫困地图。该报告承认贫困是多方面的，因此还提出了完全符合最近批准的可持续发展目标（SDG）框架的非货币指标。老挝人民民主共和国贫困地图的主要结果以 2012/13 LECS-5 调查和 2015 年人口和住房普查为基础。货币和非货币贫困指标分为两个不同的行政级别：省和区。非货币贫困指标与可持续发展目标密切相关，可以很容易地直接从人口普查数据库中计算出来。从结果分析中可以看出两个主要发现。首先，结果表明，大部分指标在省区之间存在较高的异质性。贫困水平的变化（无论是否是货币贫困）提高了更有效的地理定位的可能性。其次，在大多数情况下，不同指标之间的相关性相当低。在这种情况下，政策制定者需要针对不同的项目或计划制定具体的指标。
This report presents poverty indices at the district level based on small-area estimations, anduses the results to present maps of poverty in the country. Acknowledging that poverty is multidimensional, this report also presents non-monetary indicators that fit perfectly in the recently approved Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) framework. The main results from a poverty map of Lao PDR based on the 2012/13 LECS-5 survey and the 2015 Population and Housing Census are represented. Monetary and non-monetary poverty indicators are presented at two different administrative levels: province and district. The non-monetary poverty indicators – closely related to the SDGs – were easily calculated directly from the Census databases. Two main findings stand out from the analysis of the results. First, the results show that for most indicators there is a relatively high level of heterogeneity across provinces and districts. Variations in poverty level (monetary or not) raises the possibility of more efficient geographical targeting. Second, correlations between the different indicators are quite low in most cases. In such circumstances, policy makers need to have indicators specific to different projects or programs.
