Most existing multidimensional poverty measures use the household as the unit of analysis so that the multidimensional … poverty condition of the household is equated with the multidimensional poverty condition of all its members. For this reason …, household-based poverty measures ignore the intra-household inequalities and are gender-insensitive. Gender equality, however …
