This paper uses a multilevel model to explain country differences in the gender gap in the risk of being poor, entering into poverty and exiting from poverty in a large number of countries. Research questions are whether the country differences with respect to the gender effect on poverty can be explained by differences between the countries in the composition of their populations (micro-level or individual perspective) or by structural characteristics of the countries (macro-level or structural perspective).
In order to answer our descriptive and explanatory questions, we will make use of the European Union Survey on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) 2008.
