This file provides the primary data (database file, in *csv) and achieved results (results file, in *csv) published in the paper "Monitoring and Targeting the Sanitation Poor: A Multidimensional Approach", Natural Resources Forum, 2018 (under review). The paper discusses the adequacy and applicability of one approach that is increasingly adopted for multidimensional poverty measurement at the household level, the Alkire-Foster methodology. Drawing on this method, we identify and combine a set of direct household-related water and sanitation deprivations that a person experiences at the same time. This new multidimensional measure is useful for gaining a better understanding of the context in which WaSH services are delivered. It captures both the incidence and intensity of WaSH poverty, and provides a new tool to support monitoring and reporting, as well as targeting and planning. For illustrative purposes, one small town in Mozambique is selected as the initial case study.
