Myanmar

The PPI for Myanmar was created in August 2019 by Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA) based on data from Myanmar’s 2015 Poverty & Living Conditions Survey conducted by Myanmar's Central Statistical Organization.

The Myanmar PPI is based on IPA's new methodology, as are all PPIs released after July 2017. See our FAQs for more information on the main differences between our new PPIs and the older PPI versions, and other commonly asked questions about the transition to the new PPI methodology.
