The objective of this paper is to determine if achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) for a country has an impact on the geographical disparities, for some selected indicators, within the country. IPUMS-I data provide variables comparable between countries (while the sources traditionally used by the United Nations are not) and allow examining differences for lower levels of geography and between urban and rural settings. We measure indicators related to education, gender equality, and maternal health. For all of them, we will be primarily interested in disparities by gender across geographical units. Furthermore, we will track changes for these indicators for all censuses available since the 1990's round. Finally, we explore the impact of demographic factors related to higher disparities for these indicators using a Blinder-Oaxaca Decomposition for the different census rounds.
