This bulletin is one of a series produced by the Chronic poverty Advisory Network (CPAN) during the pandemic. It builds on a
\nfoundation developed by pre-pandemic qualitative research on poverty dynamics to understand the reasons why people are able
\nto escape poverty, stay out of poverty, become impoverished, or are chronically poor. Additional data was collected during the
\npandemic, allowing us to map its differential impacts on people\u2019s wellbeing.
\nThe pandemic was a crisis of multiple dimensions \u2013 a health crisis for some people, an economic and social crisis for many others.
\nIt has reversed progress that had been made in reducing poverty in the preceding decades, and has undermined achievement of
\nthe Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The pandemic was also, in many cases, layered on pre-pandemic crises. The Covid-19
\nPoverty Monitoring Initiative has explored the effects of these crises on poor and vulnerable people.
\nCambodia provides a unique case study in pandemic management. Its strong and relatively balanced policy responses \u2013 balancing
\nrestrictions imposed to prevent transmission of the virus with measures to mitigate the socioeconomic effects of those restrictions
\n\u2013 are unparalleled among countries with a similar level of national income. Although these policy reponses did not manage to
\nentirely counter the effects of the global economic slowdown, or the effects of lockdowns and restrictions on poor and vulnerable
\npeople, the actions taken illustrate the kinds of balanced policy responses that will be needed in any future pandemic to avoid the
\nimpoverishment that unmitigated public health responses can induce.Link to the full report:\u00a0https:\/\/opendocs.ids.ac.uk\/opendocs\/handle\/20.500.12413\/18048\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
