Concepts and Definitions

Absolute poverty Refers to a condition where a person does not have the minimum amount of income needed to meet the minimum requirements for one or more basic living needs over an extended period.

Average Household Size Refers to the average number of persons per household. This is obtained by dividing the total number of persons in households by number of households.

Decile Dispersion Ratio It presents the ratio of the average annual consumption of the richest 10 per cent (90th percentile) of the population to that of the poorest 10 per cent (10th percentile).

Extreme poverty The level of vulnerability faced by households even if they allocate all their income on food, they cannot still meet basic food minimum needs.

Food poverty Food poverty is when a household cannot meet the daily required minimum calories of 2400 kilocalories per person per day.

Herfindahl-Hirschman Index HHI is an index that measures market concentration of firms in an industry. It is calculated by squaring (HHI) the percentage market size of each of the GSM operators in terms of number of mobile subscribers and add up the result.

Irregular Migration Movement that takes place outside the regulatory norms of the sending, transit and receiving countries commonly known in The Gambia as ‘backway’.

Labour Force Participation This is calculated by expressing the number of persons in the labour force as a percentage of the working Rate age population.

Poverty gap index The poverty gap index is a measure of the intensity of poverty. It is the average poverty gap in the population as a proportion of the poverty line.

Regular Migration Movement that takes place within the regulatory norms of the sending, transit and receiving countries.

Time-Related Underemployed A measure of labour underutilization that provides information regarding the share of employed persons who are willing and available to increase their working time(for production within the SNA production boundary) and worked fewer hours than a specified time threshold during the reference period.
