Poverty Probability Index (PPI) lookup table for Burkina Faso

datasets

The Poverty Probability Index (PPI) is a poverty measurement tool
for organizations and businesses with a mission to serve the poor. The PPI
is statistically-sound, yet simple to use: the answers to 10 questions about
a household's characteristics and asset ownership are scored to compute the
likelihood that the household is living below the poverty line - or above by
only a narrow margin. This package contains country-specific lookup data
tables used as reference to determine the poverty likelihood of a household
based on their score from the country-specific PPI questionnaire. These
lookup tables have been extracted from documentation of the PPI found at
<https://www.povertyindex.org> and managed by Innovations for Poverty Action
<https://poverty-action.org/>.
