520    Reducing poverty and increasing wellbeing in developing 
       countries have become central aims of both the national 
       policy-makers as well as the international community. With
       the Millennium Development Declaration of 2000, the 
       international community has agreed to focus on poverty 
       reduction and the reduction of deprivation in its many 
       dimensions. This book investigates conceptual and 
       empirical issues on the measurement of trends in wellbeing,
       poverty, and inequality, illustrated for Bolivia and 
       Colombia. The book contributes significantly to filling 
       data gaps by combining existing data in a new way. 
       Furthermore, it presents an important step forward to 
       focus more on multidimensional outcomes of wellbeing 
       rather than on monetary inputs and to develop tools to 
       monitor the progress in achieving the Millennium 
       Development Goals (MDGs).
