SALINAS-RODRIGUEZ, Derlis. Pro-poor growth in Paraguay using EPH 2007 and 2014. Poblac.Desarro. [online]. 2016, vol.22, n.42, pp.6-22. ISSN 2076-054X.  https://doi.org/10.18004/pdfce/2076-054x/2016.022(42)006-022.

Pro-poor Growth comes as a new tool to assess the outcomes of economic growth in developing countries, helping to study the nature of growth and it contribution to poverty reduction. It objective is to acknowledge income growth within the population under the poverty line and the comparison of this growth with the rest of the population in order to perform absolute and relative assessments, being absolute for a plain positive growth and relative for poor’s income growth over the population average. In a national and regional context of deceleration of growth due to the fall of commodities prices, this work aims to study the period from year 2007 to 2014, when the outcomes of agriculture guided a high growth. The analysis done using the STATA package DASP. The results shows that poor’s income had grew by 58% in the 8 years lapse and growth has been pro-poor for both assessments in almost every indicator given by the pro-poor DASP package, as national outcome. For rural population, growth has also been pro-poor, absolute and relative, even though the relative assessment lack the strength and some indicators show growth not relatively pro-poor. For urban population growth has been pro-poor and the result is positive for all indicators in both assessments.
