The Ud’A member participated in the session with a presentation on “Measuring socio-economic disparities at a local level: a composite indicator for Italy” (Alfredo Cartone, Domenica Panzera, Paolo Postiglione). The paper concerns the definition of a composite indicator encompassing both economic and social dimensions of the standard of living. This indicator is applied to explore socio-economic deprivation at local level, with an empirical application focused on Italian municipalities.
The audience appreciated the nature of the application and the methodological contribution to the aims of the project. The conference provided feedbacks to the works of WP3. Additionally, during other sessions of the Conference, many contributed in the field of territorial inequalities were presented and they were strongly linked to WP3.
