Exploring Options for Measurement and Analysis of Living Income Levels and Income Gaps

As co-facilitator of the Living Income Community of Practice, the Food Lab is happy to the invite partners to the upcoming webinar on Measuring and Analyzing Living Income in the Madhya Pradesh Cotton Sector. This webinar is a practical case of measuring the living income gap using recently released guidance tools from the Living Income Community of Practice. Actual income measurement to estimate living income gaps is still a challenging exercise due to its complexity and contextual nature. Our partner ISEAL has worked for the last months on a pilot study to assess the living income gap for target cotton households from Madhya Pradesh. Through the process, great learnings have been drawn on how to conceptualise and execute living income gap frameworks. In parallel, The Living Income Community of Practice (LICoP) has recently published guidance on calculating and visualizing the income gap to a Living Income Benchmark. Results from the study have been the subject of testing of the guidance being developed and have given interesting results and learnings that will be presented during the webinar.
