Abstract
⺠A small area estimation method of Elbers et al. (2003) is widely used to estimate poverty measures at a disaggregated level. ⺠This paper proposes a variant of the small area estimation method to project a map of disaggregated poverty measures in the future. ⺠This method is applied to project a poverty map in rural Vietnam for the year 2008. ⺠The projection method produces quite encouraging results when applied using Vietnam's data.
