ANTICIPATING THE IMPACT OF COVID-19: PATHWAYS AND TIMING OF HOUSEHOLD WELFARE SHOCKS

WORKING PAPER

25 Oct

This paper summarises the different shocks created by the global covid-19 crisis, and what we know about their timing, magnitude and likely welfare impacts for households in low and lower-middle-income countries. It highlights that the impacts need to be thought through carefully and that taking a long-term view to planning a response by forecasting the various impacts allows us to get ahead of them.

EXPLORING A ROLE FOR TRIGGERS AND RISK-INFORMED FINANCING IN COMPLEX CRISES

Report

Alongside the Airbel Research and Innovation Lab at the International Rescue Committee (IRC) we provide key lessons for how effective crisis response can be financed and triggered, useful across a broad range of organizations that engage in crisis response. This work is a first step towards developing a practical and pragmatic blueprint for how organisations can systematically re-orient their resources and processes towards a state of readiness for future crises. You can also read our ‘Exploring triggers’ blog.
