NERI Seminar: Deprivation on the Island of Ireland

Trutz Haase  was the speaker at the most recent NERI seminar on deprivation on the island of Ireland. Over the course of the presentation, Trutz provided an overview of the Irish deprivation indices, covering the conceptual underpinnings of the 2011 Pobal Haase-Pratschke (HP) Deprivation Index for Small Areas. He then disucssed the relevance of deprivation indices in researching the effects of social class on key socio-economic outcomes (particularly health), and its practical application in targeting government expenditure to areas of need.
