The Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) and its headcount/intensity components, the distribution of households by poverty status (non-poor, vulnerable, moderately poor, severely poor), a poverty-rate trend across the 2002, 2012 and 2022 census rounds, and the contribution of each of 10 MPI indicators (school attendance, years of schooling, electricity, housing, cooking fuel, sanitation, drinking water, assets, health insurance, child mortality) to the index by province, drawn from Rwanda's Fifth Population and Housing Census (2022). Source is "Non Monetary Poverty Thematic Report.xls" (287.5 KB, 48 sheets, legacy XLS), a direct static download from the NISR portal. RPHC4 (2012) non-monetary poverty data exists only as a PDF (RPHC4_Non_monetary_poverty.pdf, no Excel companion), so the MPI and indicator-contribution topics are a single-census-year (2022) snapshot - only the poverty-rate trend tables (which the RPHC5 report itself republishes for 2002/2012/2022) cover all three census rounds.
