dc.description.abstract Gauging levels of welfare using data on income and expenditure while informative is limited, and can be enhanced by including non-money-metric measures. Using data from the detailed and nationally representative PSLSD (1993) and NIDS Wave 2 (2010) datasets, we are able to calculate a multidimensional poverty index (MPI) for each year. Having data from these two points in time allows us to assess trends in multidimensional poverty in South Africa over the post-apartheid period. en_US
