In response, BRAC implemented a nationwide program – credit, business planning support, and mentoring – targeting the economic recovery of the new poor. This paper estimates its impact using a mixed method and finds that the program had a significant positive effect on employment, income, and assets, indicating a faster economic recovery of program participants. The learnings from this program can have major policy implications for future disaster responses targeting livelihood recovery, specifically during the time-sensitive transitory phase from relief to long-term development. 2024-05-29T09:11:09Z 2024-05-29T09:11:09Z 2023-11-06 Journal article http://hdl.handle.net/10361/23001 en Taylor and Francis |
