Abstract:  Most empirical research in global health implicitly or explicitly defines the target popu lation of interest as a country or countries. While there is a great intere st in disaggregated data on population health and well-being at subnational levels, such efforts are largely confined to macro geographies. In this ta lk, I will present evidence from empirical analyses illustrating substantia l small area variation across the different health and development outcomes in India and their implications for micro-level geo-targeting for more pre cise, efficient, and equitable allocation of global health resources.
