| Poverty Impacts of Global Trade Reform – Case Studies | |
|
|
The research papers posted below were prepared as background
papers for the Task Force on Trade of the UN Millennium Project.
Using common methodology and assumptions regarding changes in world
prices caused by a Doha Round agreement, they assess the likely poverty
impacts of global trade reforms under a successful Doha Round for
seven of the poorest countries in the world. The research focuses
on three countries in Africa (Ethiopia, Madagascar and Zambia), two
in Asia (Cambodia and Vietnam) and two in Latin America (Bolivia
and Nicaragua). Country selection was determined in part by the availability
of high quality micro data that allow the heterogeneity of impacts
at the household level to be captured.
