description |
Decades of conflict have contributed to
high flows of internal displacement in Iraq. The incidence
of these flows on the welfare of internally displaced
persons is not well understood. This paper attempts to fill
this gap in the literature by investigating the link between
internal displacement and multidimensional poverty, using
one of the most comprehensive household surveys for poverty
analysis in Iraq. The results show crucial differences
between internally displaced and non-displaced households
with respect to multidimensional poverty. Furthermore,
instrumental variable regression analysis suggests that the
relationship is causal, that is, the probabilities of
multidimensional and monetary poverty are higher because of
internal displacement. |
