| Description | How do income shocks affect migration and employment decisions, and do they differentially impact women and men? Income fluctuations are ubiquitous in the developing world; they may stem from natural disasters, health shocks, commodity price fluctuations, insecure property rights, unreliable public and private service delivery, or a host of other sources. Poor households are often under-insured against such shocks, with important consequence for their welfare. Less is known about how such shocks differentially affect individual women and men, so taking a gender lens to income shocks is critical. |
