It summarises several diagrams introduced in recent literature to illustrate income mobility. The illustrations relate to various mobility concepts: those based on relative income growth, positional change within an income distribution, and poverty persistence. The diagrams are easy to produce and, at a glance, provide valuable information about income mobility and poverty dynamics, given information about the incomes of a cohort of individuals in two or more time periods.pdfen-NZIncome inequalityIncome mobilityPoverty dynamicsTextwww.victoria.ac.nz/sacl/about/cpf
