This paper investigate the
consequences of forced displacement using a panel of
households that were surveyed during the Republic of
Yemen's conflict both before and after they became
displaced. It demonstrates that forced displacement resulted
in an immediate but temporary decline in food access. Pre-
and post-displacement food access outcomes were
indistinguishable within four months of displacement and,
for later months, there were no economically large declines
in food access. The quick rebound is partially explained by
an increase in assistance to displaced households that had
worse food access prior to displacement. Households that
were slightly better off prior to displacement did not
receive an increase in assistance. These are the first
estimates that directly address how non-security dimensions
of well-being change immediately following forced
displacement and demonstrate that, in some contexts,
forcibly displaced households are more resilient than is
typically assumed. |
