Analysis of poverty and developing anti-poverty policy from the multi-dimensional, that has important theoretical and practical significance for poverty reduction in Hubei. In this paper, four dimensions (education, health, living standards and income) and 11 indicators have been adopted to measure the incidence of poverty in Hubei. As a result, in Hubei poor families, years of education, health insurance, health, cooking fuel, drinking water are the highest poverty indicators, and higher than income poverty. In addition, the data shows that the difference in poverty between female-headed and male-head ed households is not obvious; and the city multi-dimensional poverty rate is rising faster than the rural. We recommend that the anti-poverty focus of Hubei should been shifted from income to education and health antipoverty education and health, and the multi-dimensional poverty in urban could not be ignored.%从多维角度来分析贫困和制定反贫困政策,对于湖北的减贫事业具有重要的理论和现实意义,本文采用教育、健康、生活水平和收入等4个维度11个指标测算了湖北省贫困发生率,研究表明湖北省贫困家庭在受教育年限、医疗保险、健康状况、做饭燃料、卫生设施、饮用水指标上的贫困程度较高,并且高于收入贫困。另外,数据表明女性户主和男性户主家庭的贫困的差异不明显,城市多维贫困率较农村而言上升较快。建议湖北省反贫困重点应从关注收入转向教育和健康,并且不可忽视城市多维贫困问题。
